Whew! I’m back home from a very busy few weeks of travel.
First, I went to the The Greenbrier with my mom and my sister.
It was very relaxing and a lot of fun. Those of you who are crafters and fans of COLOR would find the interiors there amazing.
Next, I went to Colorado with my husband.
James’ brother moved to Denver a few months ago, so we spent some time with him and went out to the mountains for a few days. I don’t know if I was hallucinating because of the altitude, or if the sky really was INCREDIBLY blue, but it is a beautiful place.
Of course, I had such an action-packed time that I didn’t do much knitting. I’m only about a third of the way through Orangina.
It’s starting to get cooler here, so I might put Orangina into hibernation and get cracking on my fall knits. I’m ready for wool again!

I love those colors! Went to their site and looked at some of the other pictures they have up, it’s an amazing place.

Greenbrier looks amazing — I saw some photos of it in a Dorothy Draper book and would love to see it in person someday. A book is not the same!
Glad you had such a fun time traveling. I hope “back to school” isn’t too hard.

Hurray for travel and time away
It sounds like you had an awesome time (I love that shot of you and your sister & mom); and your Colorado shots are stunning.

Yay! I love Colorado – the blue skies can be magnificent. Glad you had a good trip.
