This and That

Oh my, it's July. Sorry, I could not resist. It's been a long time since I wrote. That's because my life is just not that interesting on a day to day basis. So, what's happened since I last wrote? On June 20 my daughter, her husband and a good friend were in an automobile accident. An idiot ran a red light and side swiped my daughter's car and pushed the car into a light pole. My daughter's car was totalled, but my daughter and all her passengers were OK. They all had some bruising and soreness, but that's all. It could have been so much worse.

On June 26, we went for our annual beach fix to Gulf Shores, Alabama. We go there every year for a week or two. This year we were able to stay two weeks. My niece and her family came, as did my brother and his girl friend. It was nice to spend time with family. We love to see the fireworks on the beach for Fourth of July. We were able to stop off in Slidell for a little while to see my mother, sister, brother-in-law and nephew, too.

On the knitting front, I finished two pairs of socks recently.

These are Trekking Hand Art yarn knit on US 2 (2.75mm) needles.

These are Berroco Sox, colorway 1477, knit on US 2 (2.75mm) needles. I love the stripes in this pair.

I hope everyone is having a great summer. Take care.
