October in Bend, OR








Such a beautiful spot!




We are here in Oregon, at last.



~~Enjoying the fall colors and crisp air. Still nice enough most days to read the paper, or eat outside. The wind is the only seasonal drawback.




The cats love it, except for the wind! They reside in their pen when they go out to watch the critters.


Ongoing paper art, knitting and being too lazy, to get to sewing. However...this is a must do task!


Our local area knit and crochet artists completed 125 black and red scarves for the 503 High Desert Special Olympics athletes, so we are pretty happy with our efforts.

It will be fun to see them as they enjoy the winter activities, staying warm.


New project:

Knitting Christmas color hats for kids, and to make hats for the homeless folks.

Anyone reading this, make shares for your area...or tell me and we can use them here.


















The cold fall, brings wonderful colors to Russian Thistles. If you get close, you will see all sorts of beautiful heather toned hues!

sounds beautiful. You are a busy bee. With the art stuff knitting and kitty watching. I am busy moving and packing up and downsizing. Hugs Cat
