That's a Wrap!

Welp, I made it! 30 visits...

...and that's a wrap! 

See you next year, Cedar Point!

Thanks for stopping by, and Knit in Good Health! 

PS - I don't always ride by myself...

Sometimes I meet a Teagan!
Lovely to ride with you
my new friend!

Season's...Goals!

I don't often set goals, so when I do, I try to make them fun. Maybe not as fun as a 6th birthday party, 

but still pretty fun!

This summer I set a goal to get out to Cedar Point 30 times this season...which I probably wouldn't share if I wasn't really close to making it! I stopped by after work on Thursday, and it was visit #28... just 2 more to my goal! 

I ride with family, and I ride with friends, but many of those trips to the park have been by myself...which gives me the chance to meet new friends, and occasionally get adopted into new families. 

On Thursday, while waiting in line for Millenium Force, I struck up a conversation with a lovely young man, amd we chatted while watching the ride operators move the yellow train off the track "for maintenance."

We talked long enough, that I finally said, "By the way, I'm Pam."

"I'm Allen," he replied, and we shook hands. 

"My son's name is Allen!," I said, and remarked that his mother had named him well! 

"No way! What's his middle name?"

Spoiler alert: the middle names match, too, which is quite the coincidence...so we took that as a sign that we should ride this train together, and we did! 

So what do you you think? Could be my son? 

They're nearly twins! 

Or not. Lolz...

Thank you, Random-Allen-at-Cedar-Point, for contributing to the fun of my Thursday this week! Now, back to the knitting, 

and only 2 visits left to make my goal!

All the Fun?

In my family, we joke that I am fun challenged, mostly because some of the things my family finds fun are just not my cup of tea. 

Like running. They all like to run, despite the fact that they are not being chased by a bear. What's that about? 

They actually enjoy most any sports really, and I am decidedly not good at any of them. I don't balance well on a bike, and they are all prodigies (see last week's post). I'm not great at anything that uses a ball either...even though the youngest among us is totally gettin' it!

My thing is this place, and I'm a LOT of fun here! 

I've really enjoyed having my season pass these last couple summers, and I love that there are friends in my life who love it too!  

19,080 steps yesterday, 14,000 of those after work, so it's keeping me healthy, too! Still, after that many steps yesterday, I'm glad to also love knitting, because recovery is necessary...right Luigi?

Right! 

What's your "go to " for fun, friends? Drop a comment to let me know. Maybe I'd like it too!

Oh! I also made booties! 

Semi-Speechless Saturday

Not many words, but lots of pictures, because it's been a busy week! Here we go...and in no particular order:

Cedar Point, and more Cedar Point!

Before the Guardian Mile last Saturday...

The boys' times are improving!

Big boat in a tight space, from the bridge,

after the race, storms moving in!

Knitting colorwork for hands,

working inside-out, so it's not too tight,

Second pair, first fingerless glove.

New car...yay!

HalloWeekends are coming...

Was your week busy? Are you looking forward to fall, getting back to the routine? I'm back to work, and it's going well, but I'm out of words today...lol! Still, it's good to see you here. 🙂

My Summer Vacation

My summer vacation was so much fun. I got to see my friends,

and I played with a lot of yarn.

I also got to ride many roller coasters at Cedar Point. I rode with my family,

and I rode with strangers,

and I rode with friends. It was so much fun.

I also did some knitting at the beach, 

and I even finished a sweater this summer.

I went to a fiber festival with my friends.

I taught classes and gave away ducks at a knitting retreat,

and I finished a 5K walk/run.

My family had a fun 4th of July party!

My sweetie and me went to Nashville. We walked down Broadway, and we had dinner at the Chiefs bar. 

We did not throw any chairs off the roof, because we are not Morgan Wallen!

I treasured 5 cousins on a couch, 

and at the zoo, 

and some of us went to the movies too.

We mostly went to Cedar Point, which was so fun,

and we went fishing.

We also flew kites

and watched a lot of baseball.

I am glad that I had a good summer vacation!

Thanks for stopping by to read my essay. I hope I get a good grade.
