We just spent the most incredible Sunday out ever.  Not that we don't have great Sunday outings and its not that we have not done some incredible things but this was a great day.  We started to just go and walk around the Commons in Destin Fl. and see an Elvis impersonator that would be appearing later that day.  We thought that it would be great entertainment for our 7 year old who does all kinds of impersonations one of which is ....... Elvis.   We called a friend and asked if they would like to join us.  When Jim got off the phone is said that John (our friend) had trumped him and had asked if we would like to go on a boat ride before we went.  Well need I say more?  Off we went and what a great ride it was.  I loved seeing all the boat docks and eateries that flanked the inlets. John knew extensive knowledge of the homes that also surrounded the area and was able to add colorful stories that added entertainment.  
After that we headed off to the commons.  All ready there was a crowd gathered in anticipation of the Kings arrival.  He drove up on his motor bike (exact duplicate of the one used by Denise Hopper in "Easy Rider")  This guy was good.  He even could do Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson.  After a great show, Chris our 7 year old headed off with John's son to do some much needed X-Box playing and we headed off to do what we started out to do just walk the commons.  John rang up and ask if we would like to go to dinner later on.  Now what better way to end the day then to go out with our old friend and a new one..... Elvis.  That is right Elvis and his wife joined us for dinner later on that evening.  We had a wonderful time.

So much has happened since my last blog and to be honest I just have not wanted to blog.  I lost my Yorkie Terrier this past January.  Nothing has been the same since.  I for a long time just could not even look out over my yard and still to this day have no desire to.   Since this tragic event we have gone down to  Fl. with my husband Jim.  It has been great to have a change of scenery.   Just the sun and the water have a calming effect on all of us.  Kelsey has improved even.  She was battling with a teenage depression and now seems to be trying to shake it off.  
We will relocate here as soon as some loose ends are tied.  
My knitting however is doing well.  I have completed several socks and that accomplishment a great feeling.  I believe that I will be working on some new designs for socks and will be offering them on my blog in the future.  I also will be doing a good deal of felting for purses and children's clothing.  Things are looking up.  It will just be a while in relocating and moving my studio.....again.  Keep watching I am sure that i will be making note of the process.
