My Wife Loves To Knit

I have quite the inventory of wool products that my wife created. They include knit caps, socks and scarves. She has also constructed gloves and mittens for herself. As the magnet illustrates. She is quite dedicated to her craft. Hopefully, she doesn't hold any ill will towards me.

Annie enjoys knitting while watching her favorite TV series, Masterpiece Theater. She also loves to knit in her easy chair and of course while camping. Decades ago, my wife taught fabrics and sewing at UT Austin while pursuing a PhD in Art History.

Annie obviously knows her stuff. She just completed a book on a San Francisco Bay Area fiber artist. The book will released next year by Duke University Press. Busy gal.

Sometimes, It's Just Nice To Be Home

Last week I was camping in Arkansas. It was great to see the beautiful clear lakes, rolling hills and tall pines. Today, my wife and I are just relaxing in the yard after a very busy work week. Well, my wife worked. I mainly fixed and cleaned stuff around the house and yard. 

Here's a shot of me relaxing in my backyard. I mowed it yesterday. It's about 75 degrees, we have quite the cool breeze and the humidy is currently non-existent. We're having a sweet weather respite before the inevitable intense Texas summer heat. It's April 10, 2021 and I can't complain.
