I left the trade show a day early (I’ll do a rou I left the trade show a day early (I’ll do a round up post on that in a few days). Right now I can’t even begin to process the horror of the past day, so …
Here's a few pics from my family trip to visit my Dad in Arizona so you have something pretty in your feed. 
It was a crazy week (Covid, medical issues, and wild fires), but aside from the raging Pipeline fire in the background (last two pics, very sad) we did manage to enjoy a bit nature.
Stay strong everyone. Today we weep. Tomorrow we fight.

🤷‍♀️ Well . . . things don't always go as 🤷‍♀️ Well . . . things don't always go as you planned. After cancelling our family vacation in 2020, then again in 2021 (during the Delta surge), we decided to once again cancel the river cruise in Europe that was planned and instead just play it safe and visit my Dad in Arizona.⁠
⁠
💩 Just when I was thinking how lucky it was that both David and I got Covid right BEFORE our trip, then the fun began. It started with a mild annoyance of every single person's flight getting cancelled and rebooked. We had a non stop and I used my upgrade certificate for a lovely flat bed Delta One. We were supposed to land at 11 am . . . instead that flight was cancelled and replaced with two flights with a 3 1/2 hour layover in Detroit. Neat. ⁠
⁠
😩 Then came three family members getting sick with Covid, wild fires and one family member having a very bad health scare that involved a trip to the hospital for testing (relatively good news came back). ⁠
⁠
👏 By the last two days things had settled down and we got some nice hikes in. I'll post some pics in the next few days after I recover.⁠
⁠
🧶 On the bright side, I finished my second @knitstars Season 7 cowl out of the Chicago color kit from @anzulaluxuryfibers. I decided to knit another one to show some length options and stitch options. ⁠
⁠
Next up, knitting a billion step outs. Filming in August and then you all get a chance to register in October.⁠
⁠
Has anyone else's summer plans gone not quite as they expected? Let me know how you all are doing!⁠
⁠
p.s. We did get the flat bed on the way home, so that was nice.⁠
