Stitch n Bitch Meeting for Wednesday

Our weekly stitch n bitch meeting will be at our usual location this week.  Please let me know if you need ride or can't make the meeting.

I just made my first sale on Ebay tonight!

Tonight I made my first sale on ebay!  Paul and I have had some stuff laying around the house that we've been trying to sell on craigslist but we just weren't getting any bites.  Paul suggested that we try ebay since this stuff seemed to sell really well in that type of market place.  One item sold three more to go.  

One of the reasons I had been focusing on the craigslist for my market place was that all of the listings were free and the transactions were cash only.  Whereas on ebay you have to have a paypal account, pay ebay to list your items, pay for the number of pictures you want to post and then pay for the different features that you want to include in your auction.  All in all the average for listing the three items is about $8.00/item.

One plane ride from tropical paradise to the snowy Northwest

Paul and I had a great time in Kauai last week. We went snorkeling, and adventuring to almost every corner of the island.



For those of you who are Elivis fans, we stayed within a coconut's throw of the once famous resort Coco Palms. It was my grandmother's favorite place in Hawaii. Coco Palms is the only hotel that is still shuttered from Hurricane Iniki in 1992.



Since Paul and I visited Arizona's Grand Canyon last June we thought it only appropriate that we visit Hawaii's Grand Canyon Waimea Canyon. The views that we were able to see were beautiful, unfortunately the best views were clouded over so we will have to visit the island again when the weather is better.



Once we traveled above the waterfall we were clouded in and no more views could be seen.

I will be at stitch n bitch this week. Anyone who needs a ride please let me know by leaving a comment or shooting me an email.

Aloha from Hawaii!

Paul and I are enjoying a few days in Hawaii.  Yesterday we spent the day in search of the "perfect beach".  We settled for one on the South side of the island of Kauai.  Today we are going to visit Hawaii's Grand Canyon.  Its hard to imagine that just a week ago Paul and I woke up to 2-3 inches of snow.  Here are some pictures:

Be prepared when you visit Kaua'i  to see lots of chickens running around wild and bring earplugs because they don't just crow when the sun rises they crow anytime during the day.

This is the ocean view of the place we are staying.  There is a nice paved walking trail along the length of the beach.
