Somewhere in the Wilds of Utah(A Mini Trek)

The beauty of traveling with Diva and Rage is that every trip(even one as close as the grocery store) is chucked full of stops to "use the facilities". We were not far from our destination on Wednesday when we had to stop for one such break. While my DH took them; Trekking sock and I had a "mini trek".

We had to brave at least 50 of these vicious beasts to reach our final destination. These things were everywhere--they looked too small to be prairie dogs. They were really cute and REALLY unafraid of anyone.



After surviving the beasties, we reached this view. WOW! This is one of the reasons I love Utah. You can see red rocks like this and a few miles later see the green mountains(see my Prehistoric Lace post for those).

your sock is coming along so quickly! I suppose if you get nostalgic for UT, you can drive west to Red Rocks or down south to Garden of the Gods?

Stashalong--Sign ups end Jan.1

Image
Sign ups have ended. EDIT: Sign ups end January 1 at 5pm Mountain time. Anyone interested in using some of your stash in order to make room for some new spring stuff? Join me in a very informal knitalong. Here are the rules: (1) Must start and try to finish something from your stash yarn(I say "try" to finish because if you pick something huge like an afghan or sweater finishing in three months may not be realistic). (2) You have 3 months and during that time you cannot add to your stash in any way(things ordered before January 1 but not yet delivered do not count--hence the early warning--get it out of your systems, ladies). Of course realistically there is no way to police this, so the honor system is in place. (3) I am beginning on January 1, 2006 and ending March 31, 2006(if there is interest, I'd be glad to start another one after that). (4) Keep me posted on your progress and I will post it once a week--probably Mondays or Tuesdays. I've never attempted to s...
