Count Down

It is that time.  Yes, not quite time to leave, but too little time to do much of anything.  Anticipation builds.  Will everything go off without a hitch?   Will the weather co-operate?   Will flights be on time?   Will I get food I can eat?   Did I bring enough emergency rations with me?   Will I wake up at 5 am so I can catch my 8 am flight tomorrow?

A few things I do know.  I have lots of books.  Probably too many to finish them all in three weeks.  There is a big stack of hemming and Doug will bring more if there is room in his suitcase.

If the weather and driving conditions are good, Cindy has proposed a couple of road trips to visit with weavers in the region, so there will be lots of weaving talk and fibre friendly people to connect with.

Jacqui has proposed a dolphin tour, again, if the weather co-operates.

I am looking forward to the next three weeks, whatever the weather does because if it’s nasty I have hemming and reading.  If it is nice, people to meet and share my love of textiles with.  Most if all, I hope to escape winter for a bit.
