and me riding.
We had a great time. The weather was perfect. We started at about 7:15 am, and we were back to the cars by 10:30 after riding the 45 mile loop to Lyons and back.
Then on Sunday we went to the Wool Market!
Sunday: Wool Market - Estes Park, CO

and she got a hat and neck gater.

She bought me this great wool yarn, some double knit wool mittens and this fun name plate that I am going to incorporate into my altered journal.

Ooo - that pot holder is so cute. Looks like a fabulous weekend, but 45 miles?!?!?
ReplyDeleteHi Melissa...loved the wool market you showed, that angora bunny is a little guy that I would love to take home. : )
ReplyDeleteI had no idea that you were a bike rider. It is also nice that you and your sister live close enough that you can ride together. We have an awful lot of bikers here as well, that I see each day.
Melissa, Howard wants to know if those yummy looking sheep are edible....
