Good Sunday Morning, It's been almost a month. Before we took our vaction, I discovered one of my kitties had messed up tht afghan that I talked about the last time . A repair will have to be made before I can send it out.
We took our vacation and oh the sights to see in Washington D.C. For the msot part the weather was good though I have to say those lovely folks sent me back to Calif with a cold which I am still fighting.
Transportation there is amazing and we managed to get to most everything by Metro underground train. A shuttle from the hotel took us to the closest station.
The Smithsonian Museums ( and there are many ) are clustered together or at least most of them are. You get off a metro to visit them ,turn one way for the museums and the opposite way for the National Mall, Reflecting Pool , Washington Monument. Vietnam wall and such. We saw Natural history ,a couple of aerospace museums , a postal museum ,The national Zoo and Arlington. You could weeks and not see everything.
We got to see a panda and found that they have a favorite kind of bamboo . Who knew?
The Memorials at Arlington ,too numerous to mention and see, but we did see Kennedy's tomb and The Women in Military memorial and more. There were so many more . It's hills and steps and as the week progressed my knees started protesting. I'm still working on resolving that.
We have started a kitchen remodel here and it will be nice ,but what a mess right now and oh the things the builder hide. I continue to be surprised that this house even stands. It's a good thing hubby can do so much ,but neither of us have the ambition we once did.
My cupboard contains are in boxes . He says it's like camping . I remeber being able to find things when I was camping.
What have I worked on lately not much. A few dishcloths , trying my hand at knit bookmarks . That can frustrate you. Made a replacement square to start the repair on that afghan. Tried to do some organizing in my craft room. Shelves someday maybe? hey I have rooms in 2 states and both of them need a lot of help .
I am off to find a creative way to start spagetti sauce in my messed up kitchen
