Virginia Beach

We are back from Virginia Beach. My husband is a member of the Rajah Shriners and sings with the Chanters. They had a competition in Virginia Beach and took first place. Congratulations Guys! At the banquet following the competition they had prizes that you could win. I bought some tickets and was so hopeful that I would win a wall hanging which was donated by one of the wives of the Shriners. It was so bright and cheerful with very cute flowers on it. I did not win, but I wanted to share a picture of the quilt with you.

On Saturday afternoon we got to visit the Cape Henry lighthouses. I really love lighthouses, so this was a real treat for me.

On Saturday night we went to Keagans Irish Pub and I saw a neat stained glass pattern, which reminded me of a quilt.

After dinner we walked around and I saw some neat works of art outside of the Performing Arts Center.
I love the shape, colors and design of this one. I will have to go back there during the daylight hours to see the true colors. I see another trip to Virginia Beach in my future! :-)
