I’m dreamin’ of a dust-filled Christmas, just like the ones I used to know!!!! It’s been a nice and interesting lead up to Christmas – there’s been very high winds around here and pretty warm temperatures. The most disappointing is there has been little to no snow! We had one day of maybe an inch…

November 18, 2021 – New Knitting Projects!
Please tell me we’re getting rid of some yarn?!?!?!?!? Now that I’m finished with all my “housekeeping” projects, I’m ready for some new knitting projects. I’m still working on my Santa Fe shawl and a pair of socks that I need to finish quickly (Ed. Note – “Quickly”!!!!!) as they are for someone for Christmas…
October 26, 2021 – Happy Halloween!
Hey, it’s good to be back home again!!! We arrived back in Fort Collins the first of October. Since we consider it home, I’d been waiting until we got back and settled before handling some general fall organizing activities. After spending 6 months “vacationing”, I was actually ready for some of these mundane day-to-day goings…
September 30, 2021 – Durango, Colorado
More sheeps!!!!! We’ve spent two weeks here in Durango at a wonderful park, United Campgrounds of Durango. The park is tucked on a hill leading down to the tracks that run the train from Durango to Silverton and surrounded by farming/ranch land and beautiful hills across the valley. Our only complaint is the set up…

Headed home!!!!! We left Missoula and headed toward Durango, Colorado for the next two weeks.

September 3, 2021 – Boise, Idaho
Idaho, land of potatoes!!!!! The hubs and I decided to stop in Boise, Idaho as it was a midway stop between Portland, Oregon and Reed Point, Montana. We stayed in a very nice park, Hi Valley RV Park. The park has fairly level sites with rocks and concrete areas for picnic tables. They have a…
August 28, 2021 – Portland, Oregon
Now that’s a big boat!!!!! We’ve spent the last week at Reeder Beach RV Park on Sauvie Island located 10 miles outside of Portland, Oregon. It is one of the largest river islands in the country, surrounded by the Willamette and Columbia Rivers. As we drove in and as we’ve explored over the week, we…
August 11, 2021 – Yarn Excursion of the Pacific Northwest
If it’s not Berrocco don’t fix it!!!! (Hahaha! Yarn humor – I LOVE it!) I am working on a cool knitting pattern right now – this is one I mentioned in my earlier post from So Much Yarn. The pattern is called Concentric and makes a “necklace” of yarn. I think it’ll make a nice accessory….
