while the sun shines

The new battery charger arrived in time to recharge for a complete day of sun.  The garden posed, though the iris had been standing and waiting until it was near to exhaustion.  When I sat down to download the pictures I realized that I’ve absolutely lost track as to which drive the SD card masquerades.  Is it ‘E’, ‘F’, or ‘G’? How about ‘H’? or ‘I’? or ‘J’?  I can barely imagine a ‘J’ drive.  I remember when it was simple.  There was an ‘A’ and a ‘B’ drive.  Then things picked up, we had a ‘C’ drive.  That meant lots of memory and not much to remember.  Yep, then they made that virtual ‘D’ drive.  Sorry, I’m sure everyone else knows what the ‘D’ does.  Not me.  It’s just sort of there, protecting me, somehow.   Turns out, that this time it was ‘G’ and the rest of the alphabet is left as a mystery.  I’ll be loading new pics into the Garden Album, albeit slowly, dial up does that.   Here’s a peek.

The Trek-a-long socks have taken to carrying an umbrella.  They’ve seen car knitting, and barn knitting.  They’ve visited the Farmer’s Market.  They’ve watched quite a number of movies, most recently, Capote, Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion and Amelie.  I can recommend all.  The leg has been worked on 66 sts.  This is 6 sts. too many for my foot.  I’ll switch to 60 in a row or two and also step down one needle size for the sole of the foot.

Last night, before the weather changed back again, before the last 2-3 inches fell…

  1. May it keep shining on you! The sunset picture is fabulous. The Trek sock pattern is cool, too. Hope it works out well in 60 stitches.

  2. Sigh…sunset, rich leafy hostas and a lace sock – sounds like a perfect day. Oh yes, and rain? That actually sounds good too. 94 and 11% humidity, with no rain for 10 days and none in the 10-day forecast.

  3. Skinny foot, lovely sunset. I have such trouble keeping track what stores where on the hard drives. I really hate asking the DH about it, too.

  4. What an amazing sunset!!!

  5. Is that outhouse now a garden shed?… Looks like the perfect spot to stash your rakes and clippers.
    Wish I had skinny feet like yours. I bet you get two pairs of socks out of one skein of Trekking! 😉

  6. Rain, rain, go away . . .
