A Moments Peace

Woohoo!! I can't believe I am finally posting. Life is getting a little out of hand here! Our trip to Keepsake Quilting was wonderful. Here is how we started off the trip. Big fresh greasy doughnuts. Gotta love em. First we went to the Vermont Country Store and enjoyed a store full of items from the past. I bought nothing...can you believe it?? Mom of course made several purchases. Next we were off to Harrisville Designs which I think was in New Hampshire. I looked and looked at everything. Probably drove mom nuts. I bought a bag of red roving and a minnie nitty notty, and a book on drop spindling. Finally we were on the rode to Center Harbor. It rained a bit and it was dark but we managed to find a room for the night...had the worst meal of my life and got some rest. We were in line for the sale by 6:30. I bought way more Koigu yarn than any one person needs to own. Mom of course added to her fabric stash. The ride home was beautiful. Here is a photo of what we saw.
Now that trip was just not enough. The hubby and I decided to go to the Americade in Lake George. We ended up spending the night and having a very good time. I have never seen so many bikes in one place. I didn't want to come home and can't wait to go next year. Here is the view from the beach behind out room.



And of course us and the long, long line of bikes. They go on forever on both sides of the street. And yes, I knit at the resaurant while waiting for dinner. Those same blue ribbed socks.



And last of all we took the bike up to Allens Falls today. Knitting while the falls beat off the rocks was so peaceful. Funny how all that noise just turns into quiet!!
