Happy 5th of July

One lousy day off...
I made a Tiki Torch from a margarita bottle and I harvested my garlic (32 heads). Dick put up a planter box that I made from a drill rod box from work (more on that later!)

Man, it's a hot one today. Momma said it is cooler in Texas than in Michigan today. Ugh.

I lost the two 3 week old buns yesterday in the heat. So sad. The 11 week old litter are faring the weather. They go to freezer camp this weekend.

Man, I hope this is not a preview for the rest of summer.

It's getting really hot outside today.

We rode our bikes 6 miles before stopping at "Friendly's" for breakfast.

Going to lay low until it gets dark outside.

Hope it rain's for Father's Day.

We went for a car ride.

Staycation

We are staying home this weekend. I just want to chill and clean up around here. I have assembled a nice list of things to do around the house. *Hint: New hutch, Cucumbers & New Garden Bed*.

I also would like to go for a nice long bike ride, if the weather permits. The plan is to go to Kengsington Metro Park .I looked at the weather for this weekend. Rain. Come on, work with me. 

I spun up some really nice Polworth. This is my first time and it is really easy to spin. I would like to keep this as a single but I have a feeling that the yarn won't let me

4 ounces (Peter, Peter, Pumkin Eater) Polworth Wool Top

Sean of the Dead colorway, a photo by Pixiefarts on Flickr.

I spun this 4 ounces in record time. I love this yarn. The colorway is Sean of the Dead.I would say it's 100 yards worsted weight 2ply.

On other spinning news, I received my batt from Storied Yarns. The colorway is called " The Sneetches" from Dr. Suss.
