To seed

Les Cheneaux

Hessel, MI, a pretty little UP village...

It felt much less touristy than some places we visited.

Hartwick Pines

Just northeast of Grayling, Michigan, is a wonderful state park with a stand of old growth pines which I find to be a little bit of heaven on earth.

How I spent my (not) summer vacation

Ahh, Tahquamenon Falls! I miss the Upper Peninsula already!

Labor Day weekend

The Monroe County courthouse in Bloomington, IN:

Regular broadcasts will resume shortly...

My apologies for being gone for so long. Life sometimes gets in the way of regular posting.

Thanks for hanging around!

There's something about the design of these chairs that I just love.

The clouds today make it look like it should be late July (and it's about that hot!)...

samara

I love sunlight through leaves.

waning crescent

I'm looking forward to sitting out here this weekend...

last blooms

The rest of the tree is already fruiting...

Miyazaki sky

These clouds reminded me of those that are seen in the animation of Studio Ghibli, especially "My Neighbor Totoro" or "Spirited Away"...

French breakfast

radishes, that is...

furoshiki

exuberiance

glory and trumpets

It wouldn't be Spring without some of these.

magnolia

I'm afraid that most of the magnolia are done now. (taken Easter Sunday)

Apologies

I was absent for a while from here. I apologize. I needed to spend some time in my shell.

Every day is Earth Day.

something new

The beginning of a new shawl to wear at work or at home: Citron from the winter edition of Knitty.

Ravelympics has been keeping me busy...

I've been knitting away, or sewing in this case, to finish up my projects for my team on Ravelry. As soon I'm done with another project, it will be business as usual here.

My apologies for the quiet days... 

passing through

in a hurry, from the looks of it.

snow day

cosy

I spent the day finishing up something for the kitchen to make things more cosy...

I'm gonna need more of this...

soft, beautifully mixed colors...
