Life's a Stitch

Last stop: memories created in Sonoma. Next stop: Mount Vernon,Washington, home of the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival. 

I've posted my disenchantment with photography reduced to shots taken from  a phone, replacing the art and  science of photography in its true form.

Confession: I left my camera at home. As difficult as it is to admit, these are taken from my phone.

I had thought about running back to Costco to buy a little camera but resisted the urge. If I had, I would have missed those skies. 

It was a wonderful weekend, Easter with Dave and Blogless Marsha and reuniting with our Illinois family for the Tulip Festival. After visiting the fields we explored neighbouring town, LaConner, WA and then back to Mt. Vernon for lunch at the festival's salmon barbeque, hosted by the Kiwanis. They raise $80,000 yearly for community non-profits.

Knitting content: I was disappointed to see that after many years, and purchases might I add, that Hellen's yarn shop in Mt. Vernon had closed.
