I had just gone through the introductory information about the class and the fire alarms began ringing with directions to exit the building. So, we all did as told and went to the area outside the lobby of the hotel. The sirens could be heard and the big red fire engines appeared. With short order, it was determined that it was a false alarm, but as we gathered outside, we had our picture taken with one of the fireman on his truck. He was interested in our &#8220;Fire and Ice&#8221; quilting class and I do believe he was having fun.<\/p>\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/bp1.blogger.com\/_KBuFpK1Vjuk\/SIENyD9iwHI\/AAAAAAAAAWk\/E_YwGI2tEPM\/s320\/students.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5224472196434542706\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>I&#8217;ve taught this class many times but it never brought the Fire Department.

The idea is that I will provide a clue with each post. Each successive clue should suggest narrow the location on the internet and eventually bring you to an image I will describe last. In other words the clues will narrow down where you will eventually find the image you are looking for. Don&#8217;t email me your idea of what the image might be until I announce that the last clue has been provided.<\/div>\n<div>Today&#8217;s clue is: <span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-weight: bold;\">While you are resting, you will have lots to do, some things to buy and lots to see and you will always know where I am if you click on the teal button in the upper right hand corner.<\/span><\/div>\n<div>May all your points be perfect,<\/div>\n<div>Carol<\/div>\n<div><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-weight: bold;\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I went off to teach a workshop from my Mariner`s Compass Stars\u00a0 book, called Fire and Ice.
