Up to Date
Just keeping you up-to-date: I'm in Kansas City. I've gone about as far as I can go, though my hotel room is above the seventh floor so presumably they went farther.
I'll have my head in work stuff at a conference for the next three days, but an early flight meant there was time for a wee road trip.
The Yarn Barn. Of Kansas. Just about 40 miles west of town.
Lawrence, to be exact. Sweet college town. Very nice.
I acquainted myself with this Lendrum Saxony. Dangerous. Very dangerous. Little sample skein there.
Some chasing rainbows bombyx followed me home.
Also a couple of books and magazines, maybe an aptly-named shawl pattern.
Off to the plenary. I think we're up to date.
glad to see you liked lawrence and the yarn barn. hopefully the weather will behave while you are in the area - have had alot of rain in the last month
have always enjoyed you blog

I once spent some time in Lawrence. Mainly because I was in a hideous relationship that was in the process of painfully unravelling. But I do recall it was a lovely little town.

It's always good to fit in some fibery stuff while away at a conference. Good for you.

and.. It is one of the prettier Saxony wheels. Just in case you needed a bit more justification.

Ohhhhhh... Lendrum Saxony! Sigh. I've been having impure thoughts about one of those.

But did you get there on a Friday? Because obviously by Saturday you had learned a thing or two.

Glad to see you got the important stuff taken care of. I don't know, that wheel might have followed me home.

Always good to mix personal with business trips! Watch out for them Lendrum Saxonys :)

A couple of magazines, eh? I'm envying the Lendrum. Yarn Barn. That's where my Reeves was born.

Mobile blogging! Way cool, Cate.
Hey, if you fall down and the Lendrum follows you home, it can come live at my house. I had a romantic relationship with one of those once.

Girls who can't say no have to be careful! I should know.
