Attention KATHERINE
Wanted you to know, you ARE missed.
Also, if you are having trouble with Google news*while on holiday*, why not use Mailgate instead?

However, we will be leaving here tomorrow (Wednesday), and I'll be back to my regular provider by MOnday. Maybe I'll try that next year. Hugs, Katherine |

LOL Els, I did my yarn shopping already. I probably have a large enough stash now to keep me occupied for a couple of years. I also have some new books - including Nancy Bush's Socks on the Road, which I will explore in detail when I get home. I also found something called Knitting for Dummies, which is going to be a very useful reference book. RIght now, I don't dare buy any more! Aside from the fact that I have run out of money, I have no more room to put things for traveling. We leave today for the Valley (Annapolis) and then home. I am looking forward to getting back into my own routine. Hi Katherine! First of all I wish you a nice trip back home! Space for stash is never enough in the luggage, isnīt it? I would like, when you have time, to hear more about Knitting for dummies. Hugs, Anna Maria |

Anna Maria,
"Knitting for Dummies" has the same kind of black and white cover as the other "Dummies" books - "Internet for Dummies", etc. It contains all the basics plus explanations of more complicated stitched and techniques. I think, from looking it over while we were travelling, that it will become an invaluable reference book. The trip home was mostly uneventful, except for the fact that I found some more yarn. Sigh! It was Boa by Bernat, and it was cheaper in Greenwood than anywhere else in Atlantic Canada. Also, someone posted pictures of a rug she had knitted with a Crafter's Cotton, and told us that the yarn was all but impossible to find. Well, she was right! However, at Zeller's in Mirimachi, I found their last six balls, which they were selling off for $1.50 a ball, and bought it all. Now all I have to do is find the pattern in my in-box! LOL Katherine |

Els,
First of all, thank you for showing me "Gretchen's bag" - very nice! We are home now, and I am not even going to try to catch up on over 1200 messages that are here in RCTY. It took us (Keith and me) about 10 trips each to unload the van. Now I have to unpack everything! Oh, dear! Then I have to pay for it as the bills come in. Ouch! I am giving myself one week to do the unpacking - starting slowly, and working my way up to it. The books were waiting for me when I got home. Thank you so much for them. I have to finish "City" first, but should be able to get to Phyllis Whitney by the weekend. I am looking forward to reading them. The Valley was lovely, but too hot for me. I am definitely a winter woman. LOL Hugs, Katherine |

It was Boa by Bernat, and it was cheaper in Greenwood than anywhere else in Atlantic Canada. The mention of Greenwood brings back a lot of memories for me. When my son graduated from Nav school, his first tour and a few others was in Greenwood. I visited him and his wife many times there. They took me to Peggy's Cove a couple of times; and one summer week, we went camping around the Cabot Trail. That was beautiful!! I only remember one mall in Greenwood, and don't remember what the main store was that anchored it. My daughter-in-law worked in the bookstore there for a few years, and loved it. Shelagh |
