Knitting Retreat

Today, I returned from a knitting weekend. It was great, to learn, relax, and visit. The guest expert, Ann Budd is very knowledgeable. I meet Ann in Portland, Oregon at Sock Summit, last August.
I have attended camp for several years, enjoying each one. All the meals are prepared, we would just walk to the dining hall at the assigned times. Also, at the camp, a women's singing group was on a retreat. We were treated to a song at meal time, it was just delightful. Some of singers admired knitted garments, too.

It is really looking like spring






























A few photos around the yard.
It was a beautiful day, today. I was in a dental class most of the day in Bellevue.

I just returned from the evening walk with Meggen, the frogs are singing loudly, the stars are out and Meggen chased a deer. What a great walk.
