Another Gorgeous Day in Colonial Williamsburg

It was a bit cooler than yesterday, but still comfortable for shorts and t-shirts.  We covered a lot of ground again today but really had to hurry through some exhibits in order to cover everything on our list.

 I can never resist taking pictures of sheep.  This one's a Leicester Longwool, part of the rare breeds program at Colonial Williamsburg.

The Courthouse

The Capitol Building

And this one's for Karen, a display of weather vanes from the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Museum.  Karen, are you reading this?

Sun, Sand, and Hot Weather

It feels like summer to this northern girl, not mid-October.  Spent most of the day strolling around Colonial Williamsburg and walking in sand everywhere.  But I guess that goes with the territory .  Wish I could find a way to keep it out of the RV, though.


Here are a few scenes of the day.

Marvelous place.  So much to see.  We're going back tomorrow and still probably won't see everything.

Moving On!

We spent the first part of the day strolling through the Farmers' Market in Ashville, NC.

And then enjoyed the rest of the beautiful fall day on the patio with our boy.  Moving on tomorrow and want to be rested and ready for a long day on the road.

Some knitting progress to report: the traveling sock.

Camping

Artie, a happy camper.



Pretty place.  Too bad we're only here for one night.  But we're coming back soon so Bill can spend some time on the other side of the lake.



In the Company of Knitters

I'm not talking about just any knitters.

I attended Knitters' Day Out this weekend and Steph and I were fortunate enough to have two sessions with Barbara Walker.

It was awesome! 

Go Box, Go!!!

While our box is flying around the western states, I'm working on a toe-up sock of my own design.

I feel it's important to keep my knitting skills sharp.  It's the least I can do for the team.

Go X-treme Rag Taggers!  Amanda in Texas, are you ready!

The Race is On!!!

If you don't know about Dish Rag Tag you can click on the button in the side bar for a detailed explanation.

This map shows all the states the X-treme Rag Tagger's box will need to travel to before crossing the finish line back in Alabama where it started. 

GO TEAM!
