And I LOVE Facebook….
for reconnecting me first with my long-lost friend & bridesmaid, Nancy who found me there last summer.
And then finding another long-lost friend, now quilter, that lives in Paducah, KY!!
One day she wrote that she noticed I was a quilter, she is too, and I had better come to the quilt show in Paducah!! 🙂
So…
Today I’m spending the day with Elaine!! I have a flight from the small airport 1 hr away and arrive in Paducah just an hour later. 🙂 She has free reign to show me the best parts of the day. Unfortunately, I have to be on the return flight home tonight but I’ll enjoy every minute with her!
Just in case you ask how we know each other….
it wasn’t from school or college classes or the same town. Which would be too easy!
But…
- her hubby was in youth group with me – so lots of church connections
- I worked for her MIL’s drapery business one summer
- her brother was my youth group leader while he was in seminary
- her brother lived across the street from us
- I stayed at her parents’ in VA one week of summer crusading
So it is wonderful connections with others that make us friends. 🙂 I think we have a lot more in common that just quilting and I’m sososo excited about the day!!
and sew on... 
Can’t wait for pics!
I hope you and your friend have a marvelous time!!
Joyce-I so enjoy FB for many of the same reasons!!! I have gotten back in touch with so many good, old friends!!!
Glad you had a good time!
When did Elaine’s brother live across the street from us??
I think it was when he was youth pastor at PSB. In that house where Mark also had lived. Maybe you were already out by then.
