Book of Days (part 1)

A raffle is held at the monthly Guild meeting in SLO (4 tickets for $1).

This month I was the lucky winner of this extra-beautiful, extra-special handmade book.

An actual woven sample, textile, or fiber art item graces each page in the book.

In Working Order

Getting ready to go to my first Conference of Northern California Handweavers (CNCH), I am taking a Spinning Workshop.

The Man helped me prep the Lendrum by putting on a new Drive Band and Footman Connectors (requires a Robertson #1 Screwdriver and his handiness).

Flock Foto

I have been trying to get a group pic of the Band-tailed pigeons. They are so skittish especially when they are on the ground. I finally managed (on two different days) to get a few pics looking down at them from the upstairs window.

Strolling About

We stopped by Atascadero Lake for a couple of laps again - sadly no frozen yogurt - but we were treated to other things instead:

Fishing in the lake and

 


 


a Wood Duck pair strolling down the path,

 

  

stunningly beautiful.

Two Laps

A nice walk on a cool day, two laps around Atascadero Lake,

 

 

and a frozen reward before heading back home.
