Beautiful Saturday!

The doors and windows are open today, after a heat wave, fourth of the summer. It's a very relaxing day. Dear grandson spent the night here last night. His mom had a sleep study scheduled at the local hospital, and his dad had to get up early for work this morning. I love having him spend the night here. His smiling face is just the way to start off the day. I'm about to retrieve my yarn and my hook and get down to business. I don't know why it's so hard to start a project right now. Crochet has always been so easy for me, and the excitement of paging through magazines and surfing the internet for patterns would make me anxious to get started. I just haven't been able to get going lately. But I'm putting away the computer - as soon as I post - and hopefully, I will start something...

I will update this post with photos of the finished caps. Please forgive me for not posting on a regular basis. I do enjoy writing and miss blogging. Please keep me in your prayers, good friends.

The Poconos! The surprise was blown (at least to my thinking) when I turned on the GPS to start out our trip. Up pops the address! Of course, it didn't tell DH where we were staying but it did tell him we were headed for East Stroudsburg PA! Dang! He was thinking we were headed for the Jersey shore. Then the GPS took us on a trip! I thought it would put us on the PA turnpike, taking the northeast extension. Wrong! It actually sent us up the NJ side of the Delaware River. So it was an adventure for both of us. We stayed at the Fernwood Hotel and Resort. I'd read excellent reviews and also some very bad reviews on the place. I was hesitant to book it, but it was the most reasonably priced lodging with availability on such short notice. There were restaurants on the grounds and lots to do in the resort and the surrounding area. We arrived at 10:00 pm on Friday to discover that the king accommodations we reserved in the hotel proper were not available, due to service ...
