My how time flies!!

So this week is already a blur!!

Camping was AMAZING! There is absolutely nothing in the world that compares to being in the desolate wilderness with Isaac. Just let me say this- I LOVE MY HUSBAND!!

Friday night we camped in a gap (valley to all you non-backpackers) and the view of the stars was beyond words!! We saw a meteor shower and the milky way! Saturday we hiked to the super secret eagle scouts only swimming hole (yes, Isaac was an eagle scout). It is so serene there. I wish we could live in the woods! Blueberries and snuggles were abundant. I will post pictures on my flickr account tomorrow.

In other news I finished my super secret craftster knit!! It ROCKS!!! I almost want to keep it for myself but I will restrain! I also finished all the lace repeats for Lelah! It's such an easy lace pattern. I have the feeling I will be making more of these!

Oh & Secret pal 6 is up for all you knitters or crocheters!! Thanks to Erin for the heads up! If anyone needs a gmail invite for this just let me know!!

Cyanotype news has been hot this week! The CD and shirts are selling well at etsy and there has been a flurry of interest and new reviews! YAY! My favorite is at Pale bear. Not only is it a great review it was unsolicited!! What a bonus! They also did a review of some of Susie's aka boygirlparty band Snoozer's stuff. I am obsessed with her "Winter stops" ep as well as a mixed CD she made me for a craftster swap! We also found a cyanotype link on a blog from the UK that is a person neither of us knows!! It's really gratifying to see the fruits of all our labor!

I especially like that they compare Isaac to Lou Reed!

Oh & I am slightly obsessed with Anthony Bourdain & his new show on the travel channel No reservations.


Why is it all my crushes are on guys who are older, dorky & from the North? Hmmmmm?

Comments:
I'm glad cyanotype is doing well too! :)

Yes, Susie is possibly the BEST mixed CD maker in history! She put a few of my favorite obscure bands on it & I was floored! I have never known anyone else who liked them!

She also put some great local RI bands on it that I am now addicted to. PLUS she put some mp3's up on her website for me of a really hard to find 70's band The Nerves. She is a really cool girl!

I can't believe you don't like the woods! Your so close to my most beloved woods in Upstate NY! We had a summer house there when I was a kid & I adore it! I wish we had more time to travel so I could take Isaac. Whenever we are in NY it is always for a show or some other urban adventure. We really need to make the time to go camping up there!
 
Welcome back from camping--sounds like a great trip and I'm getting crazy excited about the secret pal swap!!
 
Erin- I am so excited too!! I've already been thinking about what I will send & how awesome the snooping will be! I love the idea of secretly finding out about someone & then giving them things!!
