It's good to be home

As much as I like a week away, it is good to be home. As you can see I didn't get too much knitting done. Most of it was done in the car.

Black Butte was great. There was a wildfire 6 miles away though, so there was a threat of being evacuated and one day at the pool a light dusting of ash fell. YUCK!

Bike riding, swimming, eating, drinking... I did hike to the top of Black Butte- a 2 mile hike each way. Not bad for my first hike. Little did I know it was rated difficult and the incline was steep the entire way up. I was with my brother though and I knew it I quit I would never hear the end of it. I am pretty proud of myself. We have been going there for over 20 years and this is the first time I have tried tackling the climb. I even celebrated with a Black Butte Porter afterward.

What would a trip be without a trip to a LYS?

I stopped by the Stitchn' Post in Sisters and got 2 skeins of Manos in a new fall colorway. No pics yet of that but it is a great Pink/purple/brown mix. LOVE IT!

Got to get some much needed rest before work tomorrow. bye for now.
