Seriously, we have a couple of big projects such as a Bimini (sun cover over the cockpit) and possibly solar panels to work on. I am seriously knitting. This week I finished a hooded sweater and mittens for a 5yo boy in Bellingham that I love, fingerless gloves for Karen (hand spun yarn from her beloved Sheltie) , and working on another pair of socks ( hand spun yarn wool/bamboo). I have started spinning again and joined a spin in at a shop in Encinitas. Common Threads is a fantastic yarn/fiber shop with an incredible stock of yarns. The owners are so nice and helpful, reminding me of Great Yarns I left behind in Everett. Snoball likes it when I sit to knit or spin, have to keep the cat happy....

Lazy days in San Diego
Decisions may be harder with no deadlines. We had a great bit of difficulty trying to decide whether to stay a few more months in SD or move on south to Mexico. But finally after much deliberation at the pool side, we have decided to stay in SD for a few more months. We will finish up projects on the boat and more easily fly to Boston for Christmas with Karen and Isaac. Then possibly sail to Mexico in January......or maybe not...... but that would mean we would stay in SD until after hurricane season until Nov 2011. Guess we need more pool time....

Hi Rick and Deena, I was thinking of you hoping that you and your boat were safe in the harbor, but I see that the tsunami didn't affect Chula Vista, so that's good. I don't have your e-mail addresses or phone numbers anymore because they were in my old computer that died (with no backup -- stupid me!). So I hope you look at your blog some time and read this. I hope all is well with you. I would love to hear more about your adventures. Take care, Brianna in Seattle
Your lazy days in San Diego sound just wonderful. especially the sun and time to go back to old hobbies! I think I'll take up knitting again when I retire.
Am also glad your boat was safe.
Missing you both,
Carol
