I haven't posted a lot of knitting on here in the last few years. Not much to say about it but I still knit. I knit because I love to create. I knit because I love sweaters. I knit because I grew up with a mom who is artistic beyond the acknowledgement she receives, and it's in my blood to do something creative. I knit because I love the good things God grows, like sheep and wool and muskox and cotton. I knit because I love colors. I knit because my boys wear what I knit. I knit because I like the rhythm. I knit because it has a beginning and an end, and they are achievable. I knit because when my hands are busy, my mouth slows down, and it gives my brain a chance to make better decisions. I knit because I'm really, really good at it, and it's one of the few things that others acknowledge, and we all need that. I knit because I love to knit. I'm working on a colorful shawl in alpaca.
knitting, photography, gardening, quilting, life
I'm flabbergasted about your monkey comment... was Darwin right after all?!? (from your Fither)

ReplyDeleteNo,no,no! You can't leave us hanging like that! Post anonymously or something! lol
ReplyDeleteI know the secret...but won't tell. : ) Though after 30 years of orangutan comparisons... Hey, I will tell you if you ever want real worry of being kicked out of the zoo, go with our neighbor Darlene. She took Brian and I when we were teenagers and climbed over the fences in restricted areas to pick up feathers she liked.
ReplyDeleteFantastic pictures!! Looks like it was a good day out!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful pictures! Of course, now I want to know how you get such great pictures of the monkeys!
ReplyDeleteThose are some great pictures, I love the zoo! Now could your husband possibly act like a monkey?
ReplyDeleteMy son does it!
