So frustrated!!

Posted on July 26, 2019 by

So I happened to go back to some posts from about 2009, and found that all my photos have been blurred/watermarked by Photobucket. Because I’m now over their limit, which used to be free web-hosting. Which is why I added them there, because at the time it was easier to download my photos from there.  So now I have to go back and upload them from my computer (after I’ve found the right folders) and re-add them.

Which is why I haven’t been writing much. I’m also doing Tour de Fleece again this year and it’s been a busy summer…but I’m gonna try write here more often in between re-doing all my photos. Sheesh.

Some peeps have asked me hakum I love trains so much. I think part of it was because my Papa-san worked for the Kahului Railroad on Maui.  I have some photos he took of the old trains when he was there.  Lidis one:

Stories, Numbah Two: Polo Ponies

Posted on June 1, 2019 by

It occurs to me, as I start to write these stories, that almost all of them are only in my head. They’ve made me part of who I am; I wish I knew more of my mom and dad’s stories, so I guess these are also really for my girls,  in case they ever wanna know stuff lidis. Maybe it will help them learn more about whodaheck I am.

Last time, ‘way last time, like last December, we’d just driven into the city of Lewiston, Idaho, after winding our way down the Old Spiral Highway. What a trip that was! And now, we are about to head down towards the Palouse country once again.

Spinnin’ Away…But Not In Margaritaville

Posted on May 29, 2019 by

I’m so happy I can finally spin again! I still can’t do it for hours and hours, but it’s good PT for my knees and it brings me such joy to be able to be at my wheels again.

I just finished this skein. It’s about 300 yards of Shetland wool; I haven’t decided what the knit it into yet.

Friendly Pīpī

Posted on May 28, 2019 by

The other day I was driving from home to the gym; the pīpī in the pasture I drive by were kinda far away. I stopped to take a photo or two for AFK (our road was empty and quiet).  I cropped the photo; they were much further away at first but I didn’t want half the photo to be the inside of my kawila.
