North to Alaska! (At Willow Tree Pond)

Do you remember that old song by Johnny Horton? I keep singing it in my head. Yes, I am back from Alaska and it was a wonderful time!

Here is what I was stitching on before I left on the cruise-Prairie Schooler Alphabet on ecru congress cloth using overdyes.
There is now enough stitched to move the whole project over on the stretcher bars and continue on with the last 9 blocks. See below-

Gosh, I hope it is finished this year!!

Here is the ship I cruised on-the Norwegian Jewel. It was my first-ever cruise!

Here is who I cruised with-yes, Sponge Bob! My grandson was not happy that he wasn't invited :)

And Diego and Dora

We got to see a lumberjack contest in Ketchikan, Alaska.

And we got within 1/2 mile of the Sawyer Glacier! Yes, it was actually blue snow.

When we got to Juneau we had to wait to dock. So the ship used engined lifeboats to "tender" us to shore. This photo is from above when we had taken the Mt Roberts Tramway up the mountain.

Never doubt that I had some stitching with me and this is what I finished onboard the ship. It is a freebie by Red Brolly. But for the life of me, I can't find the link :(
Have a great week!
