Bathroom Inspriation

By -
 This is one clean potty in Seqouia National Forest.  I was overjoyed at it's impeccable state.  Ever camera ready, I snapped this image....
and then this one in the hotel bathroom.  Don't you just see Fair Isle everywhere you look ?  It's a knitter thing...

For those of you interested in our Take and Replaced Pattern Swap, it is now on its way to Grace.
Kim and Katherine seemed to really enjoy the game so far.  Cecilia and Jennifer you are down the road a piece!

Since I am not yet brave enough to venture into Fair Isle territory, I see QUILTING patterns in these tile floors. Blocks, with neat borders surrounding them appear in the most unusual places!

I love finding clean bathrooms when we travel!! The Fair Isle floor is so funny. I think I'll put that on a hat and call it the 'Bathroom Floor" hat.

You crack me up. I'm pretty sure I've never taken a photo of a bathroom and haven't pondered tile patterns as fair isle either!

I'm a little bummed that I couldn't be part of the take and replace swap this year, but I'm so busy (in a good way) I guess I'm ok rooting from the sidelines!

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
