In June our family went sailing aboard the Schooner J&E Riggin on a trip that also happened to be the first of their Maine knitting cruises – lucky me! We were gifted with great weather, wonderful shipmates and delicious food – no surprise there as I already knew Chef Annie Mahle does amazing things on her tiny [...]

While I get everything set up on the new computer I thought I’d share a few photos from this summer. This one was taken in June when I joined the Maine Knitting Cruise aboard the Maine Windjammer J&E Riggin. I am hoping to join the June 2011 trip with Bill Huntington of Hope Spinnery and [...]

The time between Halloween and Christmas always seem to blow by so fast I hardly know what’s what. While I try to make at least one photo a day, which usually turns into getting the camera out 4-5 times a week – during this time of year I rarely get to it. There is so [...]
