Off to Rhinebeck

IT IS 11:14 pM .I am still waiting up for my sister to arrive. I am all packed and ready to go to Rhinebeck bright and early. Hope she gets here soon so I can get to bed. The heavy rain must have slowed them down. Good news - Yahoo says the weather at Rhinebeck should be just perfect- in the 70's and sunny!

Rhinebeck

woopeeeee...... It is getting closer to Rhinebeck.. I live about 2 hours away from this. I would be there as soon as it opened but I have to wait for my sister to come that morning from Lancaster. She is bringing her husband who will be staying here with the Boy so some golfing will take place.

Packing will be started tomorrow. Our hotel will be in Albany area so I can over to my daughter's first house. She is closing on it on Friday afternoon so it will be a very new house. I promised to help her clean the kitchen on Sat night. oh yeah.....I must remember to bring WINE. But not too much as Sunday at Rhinebeck will need more energy.

My goal at Rhinebeck is to find some roving that is good for spinning sock yarn. This is needed for the Sock Spinning Retreat. I would like to try some wheels out but will not buy one as the Lendrum is idle enough as it is. No more sock yarn will be bought as my sock yarn bin is overflowing. Sock yarn is so easy to buy because it is the only project I know the amount of yarn needed.100 grams of yarn
