It was a really beautiful weekend here. Blue sky, temperatures in the 70's, and just a bit breezy. On Saturday, besides doing laundry, I planted a few seeds. I planted peas, like Vicki, but later. *g* I also planted purple haze carrots, radishes, meslun mix, red leaf lettuce, and spinach. It will be interesting to see what comes up since I'm a bit of an absentee gardener and I have the challenge of local wildlife, and I don't mean the bar scene.
Our state fair is a great state fair! Knitting content has been a bit low lately on this blog. But we'll see if this post will turn the corner for that topic. There was a knitting sighting this evening while we were watching the movie State Fair. The knitter was a "thrower" but I think she held her right needle over her hand and not in her palm. Interesting to watch...both the movie and the knitting.
I've finished packing and all I need to do is relax and catch some quality sleep (sleep fast) before I head to the airport on my way to the Kansas City area. I'll be working near Independence, MO. Anyway, Sonnet will be set aside for a while (do I hear sarcastic laughter?) and I'm picking up the Sunrise Socks again.
Since I have been doing more knit blog reading than knitting, I hope osmosis has occurred and I've picked up speed from reading Cookie and Norma and many others I'm just too tired to link to.
You should see how the peas have grown over the weekend!! Yours will shoot up in no time.
(Stomping foot.) When are you coming back up here to work?

I always wonder about characters in movies who are knitting. They never seem to know what they're doing.
I hope you're having a safe good trip.
