Morning Stroll

-
Ben and I took a 3 mile hike this morning; early before it got too hot. We walked through a meadow that was like walking through a huge bouquet, there were so many different varieties of flowers blooming-Brown Eyed Susans, Daisies, Chicory, Purple Thistles, Butterfly Weed. Deep breath....and....sigh! What a way to start the day!

We also saw an interesting wasp nest. From a healthy distance of course:

We chatted a while with Mr. Groundhog:
And then we came home and mourned the death of my hydrangea bushes. The thunderstorms last night knocked them all down:
And now it's time to take a shower and get ready for the day! Fourth of July plans include a geocache, quilting and the movie "License To Wed". Doesn't get much better than that does it?! Have a great Fourth everyone!

So sorry about your hydrangeas. We didn't get hit with much from the storms last night. Funny what a difference a few miles can make.

What a gorgeous walk! Can't wait to hear about License to Wed - I just love, love Jim from the Office! Sadly, as I grow my hair out I look more and more like him!:)

Just got a comment on my last blog entry reminding me that Monday is actually the last day of November, not today. So I have TWO more entries to complete NaBloPoMo; today and TOMORROW. How sad would that have been...to blow the whole thing because I can't read a calendar? I just figured, hey, December is coming next week, might's well start it out first thing on Monday! This here is a picture of my BubberKev and I at Thanksgiving. We're taking a momentary break from strangling each other to goof at the camera. Our mamma must be so proud! Back to online Christmas shopping! Have a great Sunday evening!

Lots of New Tangle Pattern Ideas!

I've been setting aside tangles that I've created in a special file in my cabinet. When I put one in last night, I realized that I had quite a stockpile and that I hadn't put only of them out there for others to try...so here they all are. I'm not good at stepouts or at naming. Most of them are named after placed in Maine...just because. I'd love to see any tangles that you've done that use any of these patterns! Have fun and tangle on!
