A picture can say a thousand words, eh?

The rainbow that I posted this weekend was the perfect ending to a lovely day.  Saturday morning, I headed down to Massachusetts to a spin in hosted by Alpaca Kathy and the owners of Parker River Alpacas, Olivia and Dave Sanderson.

I had a chance to put a face on some of the fiber friends, I have come to know over the last few years thru blogging, but had never met in person………Carole, Cheryl, Kathy, Pumpkinmama to name a few and old fiber friends….heck, I even got to meet "Blogless Sharon"!

How much better can a day be…..spinning amongst the alpacas with friends and sipping wine out of plastic water bottles….LOL!  After a hairy ride home thru a scary lightning storm, I was treated to a gorgeous rainbow……a fine day indeed!

Birthday, smirthday

Today is my birthday and I have learned over the years to be sure to give my DH a want list…..otherwise the gift could be something I need…..Shudder.

This year he didn’t disappoint :-).  Waiting for me is the new options set of circular knitting needles from Knit Picks.  I had heard such wonderful things about them, and am excited to give them try 🙂

Even though I should be working, I have chosen to spend my birthday doing some of the things that I love best……..dyeing and playing with fiber.  Here is a little peek at what is coming out of my dye-pot 🙂

Enjoy your day, where ever you may be and bow your head for a few minutes in remembrance of our fallen Americans.

  1. You sly thing, you never said a word on Saturday about today being your birthday. I’d have stuck a candle in one of those brownies, you know.
    Happy Birthday, my friend. My real life friend!

  7. A Very Happy Birthday to you Kim! I was so nice to meet and laugh with you on Saturday. Remember the scene of the dogs barking on cue to our “Who let the dogs out”? I’m still smiling.
