Quimper Hittys

Constance thinks traveling is just her cup of tea.

The Coho Ferry is underway!  Constance shared my cup of tea, with just a splash of milk.

Constance and Trilby admire Haystack Rock.

Constance and most of her Quimper Hitty Sisters  have had a wonderful adventure – first they met their Bonsai Hitty friends in Washington State, and traveled with them to the coast of Oregon.  On the way they visited the Needles and Haystack Rocks, which are reputed to have Tufted Puffin nesting populations…they did see a flock of ungainly flapping low-flying birds in the distance.

Constance and her friend Sassy enjoy the view from this Hitty-sized vug.

The Hittys were brought along as company to a week long workshop.  During a Break they found a lovely rock – Oregon sure is beautiful.

A lovely little river empties into Falcon Cove.

The results of the workshop will be shown in the next day or two … after a week the Quimper Hittys traveled down the coast, stopping a couple of times.

Constance spots some sandpipers at Hidden Creek.

It was nice to just relax on the beach for a while after a week of hard work.

Constance helps explain how to sew Gopher skins.

On the last day of the adventure, Constance put on her moose-hide vest and beaded moccasins, and showed her special Gopher Blanket to an Archaeology Class at Oregon State University in Eugene before driving North again.  Tired but very pleased with the week’s work, Constance and the Quimper Hittys are  glad to be home again.
