John Prine - Vancouver, B.C. -

From 2009 
John Prine autographing the Hatch Print.

And, to Prine I will be on July 9th, 2016.  Got my greyhound, good walking shoes, and my hotel booked.  Oh yes, and my ticket too - lol.

How exciting this is for me.  

This Prine time around I thought I would take some of my knitted dishcloths for the Mrs. of Prine, Wilber, and Jacques.  Oh yes and Mrs. Nicholas Faddy.  I figured the fellows must receive many a gift, but not the other half staying at home.  With this here is a photo of some of my knitted stuffola.  The winter is long here, I knit mega.

I'm gonna get on the old greyhound and I'm gonna ride
Straight down the mountain to the city side
Noisemaker will miss me because I'm bona fide
Vancouver here I come from the mountain side, B.C.
(major giggle)

Happiness

Ode to my little bit of red happiness on the mountain side.  I love my red wagon and my suncatcher flowers.

My small container garden is coming along - slowly but surely.  The tomatoes are doing very well.  I talked to them everyday and bring them inside for the night time.  One tomato even has three blossoms on it!  The beans are not beaning on up as they should, perhaps I shall get some more seeds and try again.  Temperatures have been in medium - not too warm and certainly cool in the night time hours.  You make the most of what you have.  Hells, bells, and smucksville if I can get one juicy homegrown tomato - ah life is good!

Guy Clark 1941 - 2016

Guy Clark with John Prine.

Guy Clark 1941 - 2016.

I loved his music and have always sang to my Homegrown Tomatoes.

He will be missed as a person and a great songwriter.

It Has Been A Long Winter. . .

Knitting Frenzy, for sure - all enjoyable and great gifts for friends and family.

Slippers, dishcloths, bathcloths, hanging dish cloths, it is a suitcase of knitting :)

A Few Days In The Life...

My gal pals and I enjoying a luncheon after we visited Desert Hills Ranch.  Great friends, great food, and one heck of a great day!

John Prine Drawing
