Holiday Weekend Update

What a great holiday weekend! I attended my youngest nephew's graduation. That is a picture of him with his mom. It was a lovely day to be outside between persistent rain showers. They had four flyovers, all unplanned. The first was a pair of geese, then two commercial jetliners, one on approach for COS, the other on take off. Then at the very end, when the kids had dispersed onto the field and were meeting with the family members, the Thunderbirds roared into town. They are here because they do the flyover for the Air Force graduation scheduled for Wednesday, May 28th.

Then I went to Woodland Park for the Frankensock class on Sunday afternoon. There was much hilarity with tiny needles, the showing of Young Frankenstein and planning the next classes the group wants to take. All in all a great afternoon.

In between all this I did the usual weekend chores and tried to get some more knitting done. I delivered the felted samples to the shop for the beginning class scheduled in July.

And I worked on the Knit One Below Inside Outside Scarf that has to go to the shop for display. I am also knitting some samples of this stitch technique that will serve as working swatches for those who want to start by getting the feel of the stitch and then we will learn how you have to rip out this technique. Yes, there is a special way to do it so you do not end up with a horrid mess.

And the whole weekend it seemed to rain. At one point the creeks were flooding on the west side of town. It is much needed however it did make for a soggy time to be out enjoying all the festivities. I hope everyone had a fabulous holiday even if you had to bring the grilling indoors!
