July Already

Phew! The year is now officially 1/2 over....and I've not much knitting to show for it.
This week was busy doing kitchen stuff so not much knitting for me. I did manage to
get the heel turned on the current sock. Note I am using the 1/2 handkerchief
heel from "Folk Socks" by Nancy Bush.


Not much different than the regular round heel, just pointer.


Joe and I took an impromptu overnight trip to Barcelona,NY
to fish on Lake Erie. Left Friday night late, and as you can see
by the sunrise, we got up VERY early to head out.


The water started out nice and calm.......




the geese were everywhere.....it was really beautiful.....



there were a few sail boats in the harbor, but none went out.
Mostly fishing boats heading out that early.


it was a very quiet morning...not many fish.



Notice how the waves are starting to swell in the background.....

then Joe finally got a nice - really nice - Walleye




He ended the day with only two...by 1:00 I was sick of
being Mrs. Bobblehead- the waves were swelling to 3-4
feet.....so we left. Really it was much worse than the picture
shows....I couldn't even knit.... I tried to be a good soldier and
not complain.


We stopped for lunch on the way home...and almost home on
the NYS Thruway we saw this truck in front of us. The back
was filled with 3 or 4 couples, drinkin beer and singing....we think
they were heading to the Leonard Skynard concert....


the answer is no....I did not show mine and neither did Joe.
We're getting boring...I know.

Sunday the 4th we just hung out at home with the kids.
No kitchen pictures this week, not enough done to show and I
want to wait for the "big reveal". Counters are coming this week...
yea!




This is a very picturelicious post...but that was my weekend


Have a great short week dear blog readers....
until next week....Happy Knitting.
