We spent the past weekend at Stinson Beach - we lucked out and had great weather. Chloe got a new wetsuit and was out belly-boarding, having a blast. Right before she went out I saw a shark eating it's dinner - a little scary. I decided it was full and let her go out with her daddy, of course I didn't mention to Chloe what I saw. I don't want her to be paranoid in the ocean.
We stayed with our friends, who had rented a large house, there were over twenty people, with a pile of kids, the median age was 3.5 years old. Jonah had a great time with his buddies. He met a new friend, who had similar crazy energy. I stayed up late with the knit gals, Sage was cracking the whip and making Kiem finish a sock on the sock machine before she went to bed. I didn't last as long as they did... I did get a bunch done on my sweater. I had one minor mishap - I dropped my margarita into my knit basket. The challenges of knitting and drinking.
I came up to Portland today for work. I am hanging out at hotel Modera, a boutique hotel, taking a rest before I polish my presentation for tomorrow. I had to begin a new knit project, one that was smaller and easier to travel with, so I started a Barn Raising Quilt from the book 'Knitalong'. It's the perfect travel project because you knit it square by square. I am using some stashed yarn, beautiful Koigu in green, blue and brown variegated and a solid green and cream. It's a fun pattern. It will be a while before I finish the project, but I am okay with that...
