I priced Mac Minis. Still pondering. If using a Mac wouldn't cause problems with my writing and editing business, I'd promptly join the Apple Army of Mac Zealots....
I enjoyed listening to Marcia of Marcia's Musings at the Gratitude Cafe:
I went to the Applejack Festival in Nebraska City, a nearby town of about 7,000 that welcomes 20,000 visitors every year as it celebrates the apple harvest.

This house on the grounds of the Arbor Day Farm was set up to be 1800s, the era focused on in grad schoolA 17-year old boy made this:

I LOVED the quilt show! We met the featured artist, Chris Taylor. From our conversation, I gathered that she mostly quilts for the love of fabric, color, texture, and beads, but she does do a few commissioned pieces. If you are looking for a one-of-a-kind piece, she has a yahoo email account with the handle "ct5919".
The background isn't a painting. It's a quilt. Seriously.
It was a really great little road trip! Thanks to Aunty M for inviting me and to the lovely young bride Jen S. for coming along :)
