Last Friday of Summer Hours

So Friday started out fabulous....it was the first day of hand knit socks.  I don't usually wear my hand knit socks in the summer,  it's just too hot but the office has been very cold lately and the outside temperature had dropped just enough for me to break these out. They are an old favorite out of a great colorway, Cherry Tree Hills Foxy Lady. September has always been the start of fall for me, everyone heads back to school, the night's get cooler, it starts to get dark earlier,  football season starts, its time to dig through the recipe box for the comfort food and the leaves will change soon.

Keith and I took full advantage of the last half Friday and headed up to Estes Park.  We ran across a whole herd of elk.  I saw one on the side of the road and when we pulled off saw all the rest in the field. Check out the big guy in the back...close up below .  I was taking the picture on the left and they turned and walked right to me.       

After our fill of the elk, we went into the quaint downtown and Keith found the yarn shoppe where I picked up this lovely skein of alpaca.
