I know I am repeating myself, but if you haven't ever attended a 'rug hooking, hook-in' you need to! The Cumberland County Region has four groups that meet regularly and they also host Hook-In's from time to time.  We have the Northport Loopers (Northport), Remsheg Hookers (Wallace), Friends Hook Nook (Springhill) and The Beachside Rug Hookers (Advocate/Parrsboro Areas).  Anyone is welcome to join any of these groups that usually meet weekly. You can also join the Rug Hooking Guild of Nova Scotia, many regions all over the Maritimes, PEI and Newfoundland...

It has been a rough few weeks for me since I arrived home from Europe.  I came home with pneumonia and I had never had that before.  I'm not coughing as much now and feel much better but still mending. I appreciate all the kind thoughts, visits and treats given to me.  Charlie has been taking good care of me.

As you know, we haven't gotten rain much over the past few months and fires are breaking out all over Canada.  My prayers and thanks for all of the volunteers trying...

If you've been following along, you probably saw many photos I posted daily of my trip to Iceland, Scotland and Holland.  Fantastic trip of a lifetime that I was so fortunate to take with my mom Joan, and sister, Dianne.  Two weeks is a long time though to be away from home.  My favorite place we visited was Iceland.  Beautiful people, amazing scenery and an erupting volcano while we were there.

Another beautiful week, lots of sunshine.  The above photo is my clematis at the cottage.  So pretty purple.

I had the oldest grandchild (Denver) with me for a few days in addition to Sophie.  He is a busy working summer student now.  Was awesome having them together.  They sure are growing fast. The below photo is of Denver and Sophie, we swam most every day.

I finished up my 'tea cozy'...

I hope you get to enjoy with family and friends the wonderful sunshine and nice weather.  I have my granddaughter Sophie, visiting for a week so I haven't done any rug hooking.  Sophie did some punching, she drew out a rainbow and is busy working on that and she's doing great.

Sophie and I baked, swam and have had a great time doing summertime things.
