Saturday, we rode the Bandit to Estes Park and took in the Alpaca Festival. I am now in love with Paco Vicunas. Also, I won a door prize, a skein of alpaca yarn. I just love winning!
And I bought some lace weight Misti Alpaca on sale for knitting into a nice big shawl. I got plenty of yardage for it.
We continued on the Bandit across the peak to peak highway. The weather was glorious and grand, and the ride was wonderful.
Sunday, after our meeting, we had breakfast with Youngest Daughter, Bebe Daddy, and Grandbebe Girl. Afterwards, Wonderful Guy and I rode our bikes for a ways. Quite a ways, to hear him tell it! I took my camera this time, because I wanted to get a shot of this,
and this
...and look what else we saw!
Today, I started digging iris. My goal is to get a little done at a time over the next two weeks, so I don't completely kick my butt doing it this year. And again, I am wondering, what am I going to do with all these rhizomes?
My finished iPod Pocket, all felted and finished up all snazzily-like. I think I might have done this on Friday...

What is the "Bandit?" a motorcycle maybe? That would certainly be a nice ride to Estes and the Peak-to-Peak! Somehow the summer has flown by. How did that happen?
Cool bridge; where is that? along the Poudre? Sweet little fawn!
I need to get back to knitting again ...

Have fun!
If you figure out what to do with the iris, let me know. I have to divide mine, too. I'm thinking of leaving them outside with a "free to good home" sign. Thanks for your comment on my blog.
