A story I can hardly believe...


Coleman and I were leaving Cafe 225 after having a salad and were on our way to Beverly's to scout out some yarn for some new baby girls that are scheduled to arrive soon. As we passed Fugazzi's an impecabbly groomed couple about 75 years old emerged from the restaurant behind us. I can only describe her outfit as quintessential June Cleaver. Her bright flowered green skirt flared out showing only a modest amount of calf. Her white pumps matched the white belt that cinched her dress at the waist and she was covered on top by a tailored white caplet. Her companion wore nice slacks, a button up shirt and suspenders. Her hair was exactly as pictured above and she wore those glasses all the ladies in 'The Far Side' wear. As we passed them this is the conversation we heard:
June: "Well Im not going to stay in a place that is dark just because you want to!, I sure as shit dont need you, and I can find myself another man!"
Man: "mumble...mumble"
June: "You know full well I have macular degeneration"
It was so amusing that I pulled off to the side and pretended to wipe Coleman's mouth to see what else she might say. Sadly they walked too slow and it would be obvious if I lingered much longer.
Fun stuff in Visalia...
June Cleaver, who knew?

I also made a shawlette for my Grandma's birthday, I may enter it in the local fair. Haven't decided yet though, because it will make it get to her late.

1st Birthday


Hi all! Tons has happened lately. C-man had his first birthday and we went on our 1st family vacation. Really our first vacation since we have been married I guess. We went to Disneyland for 2 days and travelled to San Diego to visit Uncle Justin and Aunt Julie and then to Seaworld to see Shamu. Coleman had a blast and LOVES Mickey! Tons of Pics are posted on my Flickr site. We also met up with Perk and Tara with the kids at Disney and had a GREAT time. Thanks guys for spending C's Birthday with us it was the best! I also gave Julie a blanket I knitted her and finished a wash cloth on the car ride. All of which I did not take a picture of. Ug. I know. We got great gifts from Woman (he loves his Mickey), Grandma ( a bunch of Toy Story stuff which he loves) and some great stuff from Auntie Shannon and Travis. Perk got his silhouette done at Disney which is always a classic too! Thanks everyone!
Check out the Flickr to see the pics!
