First of all, it brought our daughter from MA to spend the holiday with us. She's leaving this afternoon, so I'm sad. Our other daughter and family spent the holiday in FL this year, but we'll see them NEXT weekend to have our Christmas with them. You know, it's not the date so much, it's when the family can be together that counts! For us, anyway!
Next, we spent some time in Charleston, SC - one of my all-time favorite cities, where we took a delightful
carriage ride through the city, ate lunch at
Magnolia's, visited the Custom House, walked and walked, dined at
82 Queen, and stayed in a beautiful suite with fireplace at the
Vendue Inn! I LOVE Charleston! This is Roberta and Tony (who's in good health this year!) with the bridge to Charleston in the background.
A highlight of our trip was a visit to my favorite yarn shop, called
KNIT! They had a WHOLE room of yarn that was 75% off. You can imagine my delight - almost bought out the whole room! What a thrill to save that much on beautiful, high-end yarn that I can't find in my area! So it was wonderful!
Tomorrow I will be released from restrictions on knitting and plan to start again, praying that my thumb doesn't rebel! I'm researching knitting machines in the event that I can no longer hand knit, but I am confident that all will be well!
HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE! LET'S HOPE THAT '10 IS A 10 FOR ALL OF US!
