Virginia is for Spring Lovers; Newfoundland is for Winter Lovers

Beautiful... from here in spring time Virginia This was taken by one of my cousins, who is about my height. Yep... this is about waist-high snow, and it was taken yesterday!

Here's another cousin digging out.
I don't miss digging the way out to the car or digging the way to the street, even with this power shovel. Brrrrrr!


Language barrier

For some reason my computer is no longer on speaking terms with my printer. I normally use my printer to upload photos.... so I can't post knittapalooza photos yet. I have to find my camera link.

I usually love technology, but things like this drive me insane! What happened between the computer and the printer? I mean when I went to bed one night did they stay up late and discuss politics or something? I bet the snazzy young laptop is going for Barak Obama, the printer... a bit older and more proper... Hillary, maybe? Or, could it be McCain?

It was a great weekend, but I will share the text with the photos.

HELP MEEEEEEE!

OK. So today I saw Dawn wearing Sally Melville's kid mohair shirt. WOW! I wanted it when I saw Sally knitting it last year at knitapalooza! NOW I need it.

Tonight I bought 3 skeins of shi bui silk cloud, but I think I will need a wee bit of another skein. Anyone out there have any?
