Here's my view now the giant evergreen is gone. It's so much better.
Before, I could see part of the fence and the evergreen to the left. Everything else blotted out.
And I finally, after years of not doing it, made a three bean salad. It's taken me this long to assemble the beans.
Now this is in the fridge ready for the 90plus degree heat we're expecting in the next couple of days.
I managed to get the new band mounted onto the loom. This is the hardest part, keeping the threads untwisted and under tension while wrapping them over and over the headpiece of the loom and installing it while keeping the warp threads secure at the other end, it needs three hands.
This morning I spied frogs in the pond. Here's a completely unconcerned one, studying me.
And I finished the first sock.
It was good I got all this done earlier because the afternoon which started with reading on the deck soon disintegrated into Gary's moving operations.
A glass table I've been keeping for him being bubble wrapped by two relatives, the younger one the person I taught to make cordage, and her grandmother, old friend and future next-door neighbor. Gary provided plenty of bubble wrap..
Everybody brought their dog over, plus various other relatives carrying boxes of fragile stuff to the van. Gary and grandson carried out the table to the truck.
Never a dull moment. They're lovely people, so I think all's well.
I seem to have a purple garden this year
Happy day everyone! I have endless entertainment without leaving home.
