Next week at this time, God willing, I will be looking at the shores of Lake Tahoe.   Our knitting guild has had a knitting retreat planned for months and months, and at last the time is drawing near.

I am going to practice my minimalist packing techniques and see how well I do this time. Though after looking at the list of suggested items to bring compilled by one of the committee members, I may have my work cut out for me. Her list is extensive. And in Catagories. At the end of each catagory is a recurring word.... 'Chocolate'.  Like I would forget chocolate!

One of the activities we can participate in is a friendly little hat competition. I think there are three catagories for that too. I can't find the instruction sheet for it right now, but as I recall, you can enter a hat that is inspired by Lake Tahoe itself.

Here is my hat. 

Ahem, E.R. , if you are reading this, avert your eyes.  ;-)

I have trees, leaves, the lake itself, the far horizon with snow on the mountains.  Eh? Eh?

(That puts quite a strain on the imagination there Cupcake.)

Well, that's the yarn I had on hand you see, in my orphan yarn stash.

It's very... thrifty and serendipitous.

(If it makes you feel better to think so, by all means, delude yourself at will.)

You are one tough nut to crack, you know that?

(Indoubitably.)
