Hello.....anyone there? Or are you busy trying to figure out the politics these days???






So here we are, right close to election day. and we have these awesome Politically Correct hats. Honestly, I have my opinions and Jeanne has hers, and our friends have theirs and our husbands might have an opinion or 2.


My knitting classes get just a teensy bit political (but not until we all know where we all stand, being in the same room, setting at the same table) and we pride our Nevada selves on being a civilized lot, for the most part. My students are told, "No swearing in knitting!" I am happy to report that if there is a bit of cussing, it's not over which of 3 senators or Alaskan govenor you favor, but which left-leaning decrease do you prefer?






Being the teacher, I get to have my say (and why!) and so the sheep must follow =0)






Beautiful fall colors here - yes, in Nevada! - and I hope you enjoy some of the posts. Hummingbirds have departed, but the quail are ravenous. We're hearing some calls from raptors and not being able to identify them. Smallish, and more color to them than the usual browns/grays. If we can capture them on camera, you'll be the first to know and perhaps help us to identify.


In the meantime, Happy Knitting.

P.S. - watch for posts regarding my travels to Italy! Coming up in November!
