Everyone has a place or two that they want to keep secret. This is definitely one of ours. Paul and I went back to an old stomping grounds for a week long backpacking trip to celebrate his 50th birthday. Our original route was cancelled due to a fire in the area, but Plan B turned out great. We caught some cutthroats, saw 5 black bear, 5 rattlesnakes, osprey, eagles, big Chinook salmon and the Perseid meteor showers. The weather was warm for carrying heavy packs, but at least a couple rain storms drenched us. There was a microburst that came through the area one afternoon, like a freight train, that had us watching multiple trees busting over. Luckily the tall cedars, douglas firs and ponderosa pines at our camp bent, but did not break. An awesome trip in an amazing place with a great friend.
I love how this turned out. Glad I decided to use aqua rapunzel for the side panels; that wasn't my original plan. Another wonderful backpack using Made by Rae's pattern. Also used interfacing and lined with kona curry.
Magnus returns home from his third month away at training. The trainer is excited to show us a new technique for when visitors arrive, so I hope there's been a big break through with this boy. And the guy who rents out her basement fell in love with Magnus. Granted, he hopes to be a dog trainer one day, but I am always pleased when others recognize this big goof as lovable.

I am usually a strictly no pink kind of girl, but I will always make an exception for Mendocino :)
First backpack of 2 I am making for traveling to Sewing Summit. I wanted a small purse size backpack for going on the thrifting excursion and shop hop so I found this pattern by Cindy Taylor Oates and only made a few mods.
Looking at this pick, I definitely need to push out the sides some more so it doesn't look so lumpy :P
I'm DEFINITELY going to make more of these! Blogged: socalsewingmom.blogspot.com/2013/01/backpack-backpack.html
Cumberland Island Wilderness Area (Georgia), Brickhill Bluff Campsite - I would definitely recommend this national seashore and maritime forest backpacking trip, but don't do it in the summer months unless you're hot weather and humidity acclimated (heat index was 125 F this trip).
Excluding a wild horse, we had the Brickhill Bluff camping area to ourselves. There are some nice surprises to reward the 10.5 mile hike north from the Sea Camp ferry dock. There are also plenty of day hiking opportunities from this spot, including a short 2.5 mile run to the Atlantic Ocean side beach.
Over the 13 miles hiking along the beach back to Sea Camp (where most people setup camp), we only encountered 1 researcher and 1 family (assuming they were permanent residents). That's my kind of beach.
Shown above is a pre-production prototype of the Ren's backpack. We spent quite a long time in sourcing and deciding the color and texture of the leather. It was red in prototype but in final production the color of leather is orange.
I asked this guy I was walking behind if I could take a picture of his backpack. He said sure. Sorry if you can't make out the middle words.

On a school trip, a child wrestles with her backpack, determined to get it on properly. Sometimes even small things can be a challenge!
