I'm back!

After a very fun mini-vacation, I've returned to blogland. The vacation technically only accounts for 4 days of my absence, but I'm going to go ahead and use that as an excuse. And where, you might ask, did I go on my mini-vacation? Well, we did a nice long family vacation style road trip with my hubby and two 20-something stepdaughters to Mammoth Lakes, which included some fabulous sight seeing opportunities, including Mono Lake, Bodie (the coolest ghost town ever!), and Devil's Postpile. Also a drive through Yosemite, only because it is on the way. Lordy was it a lot of hours of driving. But oh so much beauty to be experienced on the Eastern side of the Sierras. Gorgeousness. We stayed at this fabulous chalet, which was spacious and beautiful, and quiet as all get-out. I loved that!


And I did get a fair amount of knitting done too. Finished my Clue 3 of the Mystery Shawl. And I just finished my Go With the Flow Socks from Favorite Socks. Pictures of that next time. Here are a few vacation photos.

Devil's Postpile






That's all I've got for now. I may post a few more photos soon. Yay for vacay!

Ooo - so pretty! That postpile is weird lookin... it's a natural formation, right? Weird. We're meant to head up that way sometime in the next year or so... we'll have to check it out. And the ghost town too!

Yay for roadtrips you can knit on! Can't wait to see FOs!

I enjoyed seeing your pictures. We were in Yosemite July6-8 and on the 7th we went over Tioga Pass. We want to go over by Bodie, Mono Lake, but too much all at once with little kids. It looks gorgeous over there and the cabin looks nice.
