Seattle Maybe? Candy Wrapper Scarf
Hi All! Happy Friday to ya.
Today turned out to be another beautiful day outside. Those BIG puffy clouds were back...and it actually got pretty warm outside. I went to lunch with a co-worker today that used to live in Washington state. She relocated here about 3 years ago (here being California)
We had a nice lunch chit chatting about the places and sites to see in WA. I told her my Brother-In-Law lived there and that we try and go up to see him yearly. Anyway, long story short, she told me a few fun side trips to try out and places to go--if we decide to go in June or July. One was to take the Argosy Cruise ship around Seattle. (http://www.argosycruises.com/publiccruises/lakeSeattle.cfm)
Here's a picture I took a couple years ago of the very Argosy boat...see it? Its the big white on on the left.
I thought that was a GREAT idea! (Not sure Kip will like it...very touristy) lol!!!
but once he's on the boat I think he'd have a fun time. Especially if the weather is nice.
I wanted to show you this little summer scarf I made last night. It only took a few hours because I used size 15 needles (they were like knitting big wooden logs!--lol) Anyway, I found this fun lightweight yarn that reminded me of candy wrappers. It's called Pelican, made by Dalegarn of Norway.
I hung one of my larger watercolors the other day in the den, after I finished moving the bookcase into the same room. It's nice to see it hanging on the wall, vs. being propped up with a bunch of others in the dark hallway. ((it's still available for sale...hint, hint ;) ))
I plan to do more art studio cleanup and arranging this weekend :) I'm excited to get things cleared out and organized...I have WAAAY too much stuff. aughhhhhhhh....
Well, I better go. My back and legs get in knots if I sit in front of the computer for too long.
Have a great night all!
