Sunday Road Trip

It is hubby's first Sunday off in a while and he wanted to go on a road trip to Roslyn. It's the town about an hour from Seattle where Northern Exposure was filmed. I hadn't been there for about 10 yrs. THere is a new resort nearby but the heart of the town is pretty much the same. There was a Farmer's Market going on so we walked the booths and bought some cherries, bread and local honey. We stopped for lunch at the Roslyn Cafe and stopped in at a few of the shops.

On the way back we hit Snoqualmie Falls. This is why I love living in Seattle. Gorgeous! There were so many people there. I guess I don't play tourist enough in my own area to know just how busy it can get. The best part though was in the gift shop hearing a middle aged lady yell to her elderly mother, "Look mom, Here's your beaver right over here! It's so big!" I nearly lost it. She was talking about a 5' tall stuffed animal but without knowing that my dirty mind went crazy.

Of course I brought some knitting with me for the car ride. I started Twitterpated in some Cotton-ease I had in my stash. one more skein down in the every going stockpile I have.
