Well, this is just too many pages to catch up, so I am just going to jump in here. We had a wonderful time. We survived 3 thunderstorms about 1-2 hours long, snug and dry in out tent. Not much sleeping was accomplished though. We got back on Tues morning and have been playing catch up all week.
I have seen some of your pictures, Barbara. They are wonderful. It must have been an amazing trip.
Tanya, Gary really sets up well. Our tent has a rain fly, then there are two tarps tied together that goes over the tent sideways to protect the side windows and finally, a large one from back to front and out over the picnic table. Our large one blew back in one storm, but the rest stayed up and kept us dry.
Oh, Sue, I well understand that 'trying to get back to normal' part. We got back on Tues morning at 3am and hit the ground running, cleaning Tues afternoon and evening. We are still trying to catch up on our sleep. Thanks for the pic comment. Enjoy exploring a different aspect of your artistry.
Julie, I love your 'Waiting for Rain'. Those colors are going to be very nice.
Thanks, Norma. When Gary sets up camp, he goes for snug. You should have seen the site for the storm after the one that blew the top tarp off, we laid down the poles and wrapped the tarp around the outside picnic table to be sure it wouldn't happen again.
Bev--did not see the deer pic and after seeing it mentioned had to back track to find it. Pics come in so delayed some times that I am 2 pages ahead before realizing I missed something. It is a special pic.
Thanks, we sure did. It was a great week. Thanks to Chris also. And Caryn.
Yes, thank you Ros for the stitch pattern. I will get it copied off. You are knitting up a storm. Gorgeous work. Lovely pics of Jackson. How does he stay so cute??
Thanks, Barbara, for this tour of Hawaii. Great finale! Great pics. Have a blast at Yosemite.
JanetLee, so sorry to hear of your sensitivity to the sun. It sounds like you have gotten it figured out, but it must be frustrating sometimes.
Thanks, Ann. Yes, I feel like I have caught up. A few things need to be done yet, but the major things are done.
Bonnie, I skimmed a lot of LP and skipped a bunch of pages also. So, I do not know the details, but so sorry for your DIL's family and the pow wow. It doesn't sound like a happy one.
Here's a picture of some yarn I purchased while at the shore. I thought of you, Tanya, when I purchased the multicolored one. I am going to make a cowl with purple beads. The light brown/gold I purchased a Tuesday Morning. Yes, I found one down there. They had some gorgeous Italian yarn that had a great feel, but alas the roof ate up any extra money. The brown yarn is a cotton/linen blend that I got when our LYS went out of business. I thought the light brown/gold would brighten up the brown a bit.
