It is a great time to be in Jackson. There are lots of events all over the area. I hope to be at a few of them myself. For information check out the Winterfest web site.
Blogging about family, books, knitting, crocheting, home and travel. With my husband's retirement we have traded the mountains of Wyoming for the desert and bigger city life in Arizona.

Fresh Powder
I woke up this morning to a light snowfall that put a new dusting on the trees. Something else I have noticed in being away from a big city is that the snow stays prettier longer. It does not gather all the dirt and debris thrown out by commuting cars and people. I am liking this. I know that next winter about this time I may well be whining about waiting for spring but we'll deal with that when it happens okay?
In the meantime I want to start recording what I read. If you have read anything I put here feel free to leave a comment. Right now I am reading American Wife. I bought the book in an airport around the holidays and I am fascinated by the story but am rationing it. I don't have my new library card yet and that is my favorite way to get books. Getting a library card is something I do right after getting a new drivers license when I move to a new place and I need to do both, maybe next week. I am anxious to check out the Teton County Library and see what they have to offer.
Until next time-

For a Princess
Yesterday for Wordless Wednesday, which is a way of blogging on Wednesdays that I intend to continue, I showed you a pink baby blanket I am working on. In an effort to reduce my stash of yarn and fabrics I decided to make this with yarn I already. As any of you who knit or crochet know sometimes it just does not work out. It looks as if, oh darn, I need to get some more yarn to finish it to the size I want. I am thinking about a green border to enclose the pinks.
I am pleased with the way it looks so far and when finished it will go online in one of my shops so someone can make the life of a new princess softer.
