4th of July

Spent the fourth watching a beautiful display of fireworks at the beach. The rain held back just till we were ready to leave - thank you. When you get the chance to visit family and friends you haven't seen for several months it cheers the soul and hearts are warmed. The sun made every green visible even more inviting than ever. So refreshing...delightful. And of course I found plenty of time to knit. Finished a pair of socks, just needing to tuck in the ends. Used a simple pattern so the self striping yarn would take the stage. I'm so glad I found the opportunity to knit socks...I had challenged myself plenty with gloves and sweaters and felted purses and now with socks in my yarn journal I feel well rounded. Still and always looking for more challenges. Really wanting to get started on some lacy knit and or crocheted tops. Tops meaning spaghetti strap tanks etc. Delicate beauties I'd say.

At last I'd like to add...thank you with an abundant scoop of gratitude to all those friends and family members that keep trudging thru this war even if it may not of been the best of choices but because it is right to help and protect and serve with loyalty. I'm so proud to be an American because I know what if means to be a part of this nation. With God, everyone... remember only with God is our nations honest and loyal purpose even possible!
