February 1

I made a hat. Through the magic of felting, this became a bowler hat.

February 2

More baby stuff

February 3

Cat on the dishwasher. What is she going to do when the dishwasher gets covered with an island & she won't be allowed up there anymore? Kitty needs a new place to sit in the middle of things.

February 4

Whatever this stitch is, I like it.

February 4

Believe it or not, this is sourdough bread. I made it in an angel food cake pan. While it looked kinda funny, it tasted great.

Spring is on the way & new stuff is coming up in my garden.

Thisis the garage as we left for the train station.

This is unretouched. All I did was resize it for the web. This really is what the sunrise looked like that morning.

This is on our SoCal road trip.

I managed to drop my sunglasses somewhere on the crater.

Underground gardens

February 22

We came home from the road trip to find this. Evidently, a crazy guy, probably under the influence of something, got into a fight with someone up the hill. I don't know who won the fight but the result was that the crazy guy got mad and attacked the two trees in front of our house and the one in front of the neighbor's house. Evidently, he was looking for a weapon with which to attack someone else (stranger) who had just gotten off the bus. The crazy guy man managed to break 5 of the 9 posts holding up the trees and did some damage with pulling over the trees. I think my trees will survive. I can't say the same for the neighbor's tree. I think it's had some damage at the roots.

February 24

This is the LightRail, taken while I was wandering around Mountain View.

February 25

My garden is coming up in purple flowers.

February 27

The Doggy's custodian is getting married. My bunny went to the bachelor party. Being a girl, it wouldn't have been appropriate for me to be there. I waited outside in the car and knit.

February 28

I made a mitten.

February 29

This was part of the sunrise ceremony for the wedding.
