Okay -- finally -- I am ready to blog about MY VISIT TO HAMILTON, MISSOURI. This combined so many things I LOVE...first of all, let's hear it for girlfriend travel!!
|
These are the players. The four of us are ALWAYS, ALWAYS at TMBC. Sandy, me, Linda K. and Linda P. |
|
Getting to the departure point at 4:45 AM was the hardest part of the trip! |
|
You already know I SLEPT for most of the ride down...(it took over 5 hours) |
|
The Doan family has turned this town upside down....and it is jam-packed with quilters. Lucky for us, the buildings are beautifully renovated, and there are many interesting murals...SO MUCH FUN, EH? |
|
|
This mural is on the side of the main store (there is a bakery and a burger joint next door) |
|
This mural is on the side of the renovated Retreat Center. I stayed there last summer when my sister Ronda and I went to the Featherweight Workshop. |
We arrived at lunch time -- and the bus company had arranged for a lovely boxed lunch. However, LK and I decided to have a gourmet experience at the
Blue Sage Restaurant...
|
The pot pie was delivered in it's own iron skillet. SO MUCH FUN! |
This trip was about WAY MORE than just fabric shopping! BUT -- hey -- tomorrow, I'm gonna tell you about the fabric shopping!!
|
There are a lot of signs in every store...and you've gotta love this one... |
