It's one of our favorite places to go. I tried to email you but I couldn't find an email.

I was a faithful follower of Teresa Kasner's blog and remembered you from it. We are camping along the Oregon coast right now and visited a few places that Teresa used to mention whenever they camped here. She is on my mind quite a bit and I hope her family is doing okay. Such a loss to all of us. Meanwhile, I discovered you too are a knitter and have enjoyed reading your latest publications and your new yarn purchases. lilysgranniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881178304674508910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162150278449660664.post-75848074621872998342022-06-20T09:33:02.751-05:002022-06-20T09:33:02.751-05:00We were surprised with a hail storm several nights...We were surprised with a hail storm several nights ago. Hail, rain, thunder and lightning. It was pretty amazing. Fortunately, the hail was only the size of garbanzo beans, so no damage to speak of. Great bargain on the yarn. So sorry your family is dealing with Covid. I'll be praying for speedy recovery. I love the artwork with the inspirational quote.

We have had some nasty storms too. About a quarter of our town has been without power for 48 hours, but it is on target to be completely restored by 11:30 pm tonight. This has been miserable for many with temperatures hitting 100 degrees. What a great yarn haul! You picked the right day to go!!!

I think it's Knit Picks best sock yarn and have no idea why they would discontinue it. <br />My SIL came home from a business trip to FL last Friday and now has Covid. Daughter is beside herself with worry over the new Grand who is only 5 months old. She's locked herself and the baby in a bedroom with a bathroom away from SIL and is hoping for the best. The worst part is they went to a friend's baby's christening on Sunday before he knew it was Covid. Of course they all held the baby for photos....<br />Araigneenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162150278449660664.post-17170064525952712992022-06-15T13:36:03.196-05:002022-06-15T13:36:03.196-05:00Sending prayers, and will continue to do so.

We are 97 today with a heat index of over 100. I miss Spring! That is a great deal you got at Hobby Lobby. I must be the only person who hasn't been there yet. I am trying to remain good by not buying too much, as so much of others things have gone up so much. Gas over five dollars, food through the roof. Very thankful you all made it through the storms. Sending prayers your way and wishing you many blessings sweet dear friend.

I suppose at least they got it on their way home, instead of while they were there.<br /><br />We moved to an area that gets much more intense storms than where we used to. Tornados are still rare (and usually small when they do happen), thankfully. Dave got us a generator, and we need to get our friend to hook it up to our electrical panel so we can easily run a few things in the house. We've had several good power outages since we moved in here.Wanderingcatstudiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459444703722115118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8162150278449660664.post-22725974424888648082022-06-15T13:00:50.118-05:002022-06-15T13:00:50.118-05:00So sorry to hear about Mandy and Piper getting Cov...So sorry to hear about Mandy and Piper getting Covid.
