The Island Beckons

At last..... packing to return to Lopez tomorrow!!  It's still a challenge on crutches, but I've learned to understand that I can eventually get things done...they just take so much longer to accomplish.  (I well never, ever, take mobility for granted again!)

The packing list includes a new class basket, an oval "art" piece, doilies and crocheted pieces to block, crocheted baby blanket in-progress, and the yarn and yarn winder for the sally bag I am designing and will only permit myself to start if I get the class basket done.

Projects for Anadaré itself on this trip include an appointment with the exterminator to convince the sugar ants to find a new home, and check on the new roof that was just installed.  I'm sure the landscaping needs a bit of attention, but I'm not sure how much I can do on crutches.

The weather should be sunny- and even if I can't climb around on the beach, I can definitely appreciate the view.

We will, however, stick close to the cabin on Saturday - it's the Tour de Lopez, and driving with all of the bicyclists will be more of a challenge than we probably want!
