Visiting with Marion
Walking the beach and jetty
Beautiful Fall Colors
Details to follow when I have the energy to post more. The change of scenery was wonderful, both the water and colors, family and old friends, but with the economy tanking, it only took a few minutes for the good feelings I had while away to vanish once I arrived back home.
I did finish the pair of socks!!

Welcome back! Looks like you made out with good booty from Rhinebeck. Looking forward to hearing more about your travels.
You look great in your shawl!
It seems you all had a great time at the reunion. Walk on the beach, a day with fellow yarnies and the beautiful fall leaves. You can't go wrong!
Gorgeous pictures! Looks like you had a great time!!
Looks like you had a wonderful trip! I can't wait to see what you do with the roving from Creatively Dyed... I met Dianne this weekend at SAFF (fiber fest in NC) and her stuff is beautiful.
