Desert Mesa In Cache Creek was the 17th thru the 20th, was outstanding as usual. Pleased that I can still go up and down the steps for meals even tho I do move slow on steps. Ran into quite a bit of snow on the way home, tho for the most part it wasn't sticking to the road, glad for the snow tires. Once I dropped down to 100 Mile House snow quit and roads were bare & dry. Only  thing I bought was variegated sock yarns from Mary-anne Smith for use in Monstersocks, no spinning fibres, none. Oh did buy a nasty cold somewhere on the trip, felt punk most of last week, even so uncomfortable that I went without food Thursday and Friday, only drinking water. On the mend now after the week from hell. Still working on the second reds Monstersock, about half way down the foot on 2nd sock. As soon as its finished will get the sock yarn into balls to start on socks for Jean in Oregon. She wants red for the main colour then lots of bright colours along with.

Got into Williams Lake Wednesday midday, appointment at 5:30 at Kal Tire for new snow ties to be mounted on car, by the time I got out of there was nearly dark and far to late to be starting for home. To many deer, cattle and horses on the road. Motel for the night, then in the morning picked up a few groceries at SaveOn and headed west. Very glad to have the tires on the car, they are mandatory for highway travel on October 1st, so only was a day late. Weather forecast is for snow flurries Monday night and then temps in low teens F for Tuesday and Wednesday. Pix I took on the finished reds sock #1 hasn't shown up in my photos yet so no pix at this time. Will add it when it comes thru. First pix is sock inside out and second the right side.
