Rain in South Carolina

We had lots of rain this past weekend - not enough, but it was a start. My husband and son went fishing (nothing stops a dedicated fisherman). They caught pictures and fish, a good haul. I think this picture will make a start for a jacquard weaving in the new 14-color palette I'm working on. Thanks, guys. The first picture is Willy's, and the second is my reduction to an indexed version in 14 colors.

Dinner at the Italian Restaurant

On July 4, when everyone else was heading downtown for the fireworks, we went for an early dinner at our neighborhood Italian restaurant. We were the only people there! It was calm, quiet, and the dinner was wonderful. But best of all, we were seated next to a window with the most gorgeous curtains. I'm not sure about the fiber content, but a burn test would not have been appreciated. Instead, I just enjoyed the weave and the relaxing dinner, and took a picture. What's not to love about a restaurant like this?

Stressed

Fifth in a series. This fellow (gal?) appears mightily stressed. The crossed legs are a giveaway. Sort of like someone waiting in line to use the facilities.

I'm just noticing that all of Potch's birds have their body feathers plucked. Why is this, Uncle?
