Costa Rica

Our adult children gave us a trip for our wedding anniversary.  We went to Costa Rica where we had a great time.  We saw some beautiful landscape.  I'll show you a photo of the "back yard" of one of the Bed and Breakfast places where we stayed.

Travel Alberta

   Great video about Alberta.  The mountain and lake photos are fantastic.  You can make this bigger by clicking on the four arrows bottom right, then use the escape button on your computer to get out of it afterwards.

Spinning for Joy

I enjoy hand-spun yarn.  I appreciate the creativity that goes into making it.  I like the "hand" part of hand-spun -- the thought that hands have made it, not a machine in a factory somewhere far away.  Some part of the maker is in the yarn.  There was planning and anticipation and a little spark of creativity.  Below is a photo of my latest spinning.  I don't know if the colors will show up -- there is green and a bit of orange in the yarn.  I've plyed one strand of Gold Mine mixed Corriedale with a strand of Patina Merino.  Love the color.
