Quilting Tonight


At Ruth Ann's in Brookeville. Mimi couldn't go so I looked at my Montgomery County map and couldn't figure out how to get there. I typed the address into maps.google.com and saw it on the map. Selected directions which sent me out Woodfield Road - right by the airpark and all that construction, narrow lanes and too many cars going north. Took a slight detour out Goshen to the East Village Drive to get around it, found 108 and thought I was home free. BUT, you knew that was coming. The directions said left on Briar Rd. Eh Yup. Briar Road was a right only turn and the left would have put me in a field of snow. Went along until I was well in and decided to call for help. Stan got on the line and said I don't know where you are, but if you can find the light again at Olney Mill Road and 108, I can talk you in. So I did three rights to get back to 108. Except they weren't straight lines and not marked and filled with speed bumps and roundabouts. Very frustrating. Also Stan didn't know the names of the streets, just knew how to drive it if he were driving. He kept asking are you going South or West? In the dark with snow piled higher than the car? Can you see the swimming pool? No. Duh. Anyway, I did get there. Took me one hour. And Barbara won the squares this month.
