I’m here! It is so much fun to reconnect with the artsy quilters from last year, dinner tonight was the Sonoma County Table with two guests: Mrs. Mel and my roomie, Kris. She is from Kansas city and works at a Chico’s!!! She is a reader of my blog, so she is one step ahead of me in the getting acquainted department. She is taking Mrs. Mel’s class.

And here is Mrs. Mel with moi!

Here is the dessert du jour.

We were upgraded to a suite and it is awesome. I let the jet-lagged roomie have the bedroom and I am on the sleeper sofa. Here are some shots of the room:

And look what is in the silent auction. I am seriously bidding on this. A gorgeous pillow by our own Gabrielle, who we miss!!!

Oh and there is that Mrs. Mel again – loves the camera.
