Road Work...

Later this afternoon we are heading west.

Planning on some of this...

but,

I'm prepared for it!

and,

with any luck

it won't be this sort of road work...

 

however,

 this sort of road work...

hours and hours of in-the-car-style-stitching...

or my road work,

as I'm calling it.

 I'll be spending the 10 hour drive

 stitching the August Word Play.

And maybe even put the first stitch or two in the below piece...

(for those of you who loved the House of Blues & Browns Sampler chart,

this is a spin off of it, only for Halloween...it's spooky fun!)

Where are we going?

We are heading to Denver, CO 

to visit our son, Matthew.

  I'm excited to see him,

it's been since Christmas.

 He's promised us

 a meal of his famous smoked pork! 

mmmmmmmm

On Sunday, Father's Day,

Matthew and the dh

 are riding in a 100 mile bike ride 

around the Denver area.

  Which includes peddling up Look Out Mountain, yikes!

I hyperventilate and get leg cramps just looking at the photo of

that winding mountain road.

  

   As for me,

 I'll be sitting in his backyard patio,

 enjoying the dry summertime air of Denver

while stitching, 

and worrying, hoping

that the males in the Gervais family

 will return without incident,

no biking for me.  

P.S....Linen update,
we now have the 35 count Abecedarian Linen used on the Word Plays back in stock.
  Our order of the 40 count Parchment linen, used on the thimble purse patterns, is in transit to us.  I'll post this for sale on our website when I get back from our quick little trip.

Toodle loo,

Brenda
