The Sock War Is Over - I'm Toast

But I did get a lovely pair of socks out of the deal. My Assassin did a lovely job and I think the one target that I eliminated is also happy. This was a one time experience only, not to be repeated and details and picture of the socks are on my knitting blog.

Meanwhile we spent the past weekend opening our little cabin in the woods for the summer and battled the rain, cold and black flies most of the weekend. I don't ever remember a Victoria Day long weekend so cold. Good thing we have a good supply of firewood. It was too cold to open the pottery studio, way too cold for clay.

I'm not sure we can go every weekend as in days of old since now the cost of gas makes it almost prohibitive. The town of Haliburton will become a casualty of high gas prices, the town was almost devoid of people this weekend unlike anything I have seen in 20 years.
