The Big Knit is Back!

It's that time of year again! Time for the BIG KNIT! I did it last year and I'm doing it again this year! So if you're into knitting for causes, try out this one out for size. It's simple, small and so easy you'll fill a box so fast that you might not be able to stop! So check out The Big Knit!

And here's my post from last year!

Happy First Day of Autumn



The Fall reminds me of the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. Here is a short video I made when we crewed for Becky back in 2007. I think I've posted it every year so far. The experience of that week is like nothing I've ever done before. When I get back to the States that is one thing I would like to do every year. I really loved Albuquerque in the Fall. It had such a wonderful flavor, you could taste it. I think it tasted like Frontier cinnamon rolls.

This is my second fall in England and I haven't had one of these since 2004 when I lived in Berkeley. The seasons don't really change in Berkeley like they do here, and they really didn't change much in Albuquerque. So I'm looking forward to the colors again. I've always loved the colors of a true Fall. The sunsets just seem to reflect what's going on with the trees.
