Brought to You by the Friendly Confines of Wrigley Field

 Our guest blogger is a Wrigley Field employee.
He was happy to oblige and hold my knitting for a photo for you. 
The Heaven's opened up and there was a HUGE storm. 

 I clung to my little baby socks and we were safe. 

The entire afternoon and evening will be long remembered!

Are you CRAZY? no. We stayed until about 9. Lightening, thunder. We stayed dry though . our seats were behind third base/outfield and the wind was in our favor. Fireman figured we paid 120 per inning. We stayed for 2 innings. BUT IT WAS WILD FUN

I wonder what the Wrigley Field employee is writing on his blog today?! Maybe a top ten list of the strangest things he's ever been asked to hold. I think knitting is the best part of baseball, and am glad you and your socks were safe.

Did you finally get to see the game or was it cancelled.

It's funny about people holding our knitting.......most people really get a kick out of it. LOL

I love it! I've knit at a few Colorado Rockies games, but never thought to ask anyone to hold my knitting for a photo.

Glad you stayed safe and dry.

That guy with the knitting is just too funny. Too bad about the nasty weather but it did make for an exciting adventure once you made it through to tell the tale!

Personally, I'm buying into this climate change stuff! We have had so many intense storms this summer.

 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...
