The curious thing is all these yarns are red based or at least includes some red.

For at least 20 years, purple has been my favorite color.

Am I switching to red from my loved purple?

Does that mean anything?

Today was sock Sunday.

It was a great but small group, as folks get busy this time of the year.

Knitting Time

I had a lot of knitting time, today, as Gary had a couple stents placed. He is doing well and will come home, tomorrow.

Nov.30

The last rainy day of November, I am still working on setting up this new computer. I am very slow at learning the new system.
We did have a long relaxing Thanksgiving weekend.

Yesterday's Sunrise

Yesterday morning, we open the garage to a beautiful sunrise. I am heading to work. Gary and Meggen hop in his truck, drive about a mile to take these lovely photos. The sunrise reflects in the standing water in the fields, as we have had lots of rain. Thank you, Gary for the photos. Meggen thanks you for the truck ride.

Tomorrow

Happy Thanksgiving

Miscellaneous

Well, the highlight of the evening was a budget hearing for fire district 5. I am a fire commissioner, so we talked about money and planned a budget.

On the knitting front, I am going to knit myself a sweater. I saw the pattern on the cover of the winter edition of Interweave Knits. Then for the last 4 days, I have been looking at yarn and colors. I made the color decision, today, it is brick red heather, not bright red, kind of red/brown. I have been to WildFibers every day for the last 4 days, looking at colors.

Goats

Yesterday morning, I am heading to town for a sock class. The goats were loaded up in a truck and heading to their winter location. I have enjoyed watching the goats in the tent on rainy days, out in the field, and various position on their mound of dirt. It was nice to see them head out and hope they come back in the spring.
