Getting started on Xmas ornaments

I did a bunch of these, like 30 petite Pierres, last year. Now I have sparkle yarn. Getting an earlier start this year.

Spa day for the D-93

I love showing off this guitar. It’s been my player for 33 years. We had a gig last night and I broke a D string on the first strum of the last song of the night. So. it’s a Spa Day. Wash, polish and new strings. In the process I finished my 30-year-old bottle of Martin guitar polish. Anyone else use this stuff? I didn’t use it a lot, which is how it’s lasted this long, but when I wanted to really shine it up, I got it out.

The only other D-93 I’ve ever seen is Billy Strings Dad’s.

Edit for spelling

Golden Pierres!

Hejin sparkle yarn in gold, rose gold and orange. 4mm hook for the regular size and 3.5mm hook for his diminutive friend. I have a lot of Pierres now.

On the road for the first time.

I’m working at an arts/music festival today and decided I’d give the portable lifestyle a try. I’ll probably make little hearts and smiley faces as they are fast and easy. It’s my first time crocheting away from home. I even fit the blue yarn bowl in the bag. Hopefully, it goes well.

Black and Blue, 46 years ago.

BÖC, Black Sabbath w/ Ronnie James Dio, Molly Hatchet.

Got in line the night before and spent the night partying with some Army guys from Fort Lewis who were selling LSD.

Things got trippy after that.

Mirrors tour. WRONG!

It’s been 3 months w/o Barney

Barney the Beagle crossed the bridge on April 15th. I look at his picture everyday. I’ll miss him the rest of my days.

Which Woobles have you made multiple times/ in different colors?

Open bottles and the pantry

The wife and I got into Hot Ones last year and have embraced the heat.

We’ve tried more than this. Fred Meyer had Buffalo sauce for $5 so I bought ten bottles. Volkano is my wife’s favorite. 8 Dragon is a new favorite as well. Garlic Fresno is my breakfast go to.

Taco Vibes is not to be taken lightly. It means business and is the hottest one I’ve tried.

Who keeps ordering more sparkle yarn?

My old yarn bag, which I replaced with a nice, new, bigger yarn bag, is now full of Hejin Sparkle yarn. I’m pretty sure someone has been logging into my account and ordering this when I’m not looking. That’s what I’m telling my wife anyway. Don’t get me started on Bernat blanket yarn. How did I end up with 5 different colors of that?

Some mysteries just can’t be solved.
