hello dear friends, if anyone is out there still...thank you dearly for reading...so much catching up to do, my poor blog. but this happened last weekend!! 27 june, 2015 my youngest, my hannah rose, was married. she and matt came here, back home and said their vows at the salt marsh nature preserve, my middle son officiating, with family and closest friends in attendance. also, there were clouds and fog and wind and even a bit of rain fell. and then at dusk, a rainbow. i believe that all wanted to see the magic that was taking place. the LOVE. more photos coming soon. i hope you are all well!!<br />

my son sent a text this morning: went free diving with sharks yesterday outside haleiwa {hawaii}<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; text-indent: 48px;">sharks played an important role among the ancient hawaiians, and were considered by some as ‘aumākua, personal or family gods, and sacred guardians and protectors that should be respected and even fed.</span><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; text-indent: 48px;"> s</span><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; text-indent: 48px;">harks also played a role in myths and legends, as well as hawaiian history.</span><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; text-indent: 48px;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; text-indent: 48px;"><br /></span>
the hawaiian word for shark is <span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; text-indent: 48px;">manō</span> , kyle said there were eleven <span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; text-indent: 48px;">manō</span> in the water, sand sharks, nurse sharks, and one tiger had been spotted earlier. but no one went in the water then. i'm so glad my son is having epic experiences and that mostly, he waits to tell me about them afterwards. ;)<br />

sitting still keeping quiet, the pronghorn came nearly to our tent. i wished i could go to the truck for another lens, but when we had realized they were moving towards us, we both stayed put (or they would have run). an incredible amazing moment. the following photos are from a previous trip to the carrizo...<br />

hello dear friends! i hope you are well, it's almost spring! i have a new job! it's a very big job, but only involves one small thing. it's piper pearl! well, we didn't plan for things to go this way, but life working it's magical mysterious ways, decided i should take a leave from my work and stay home here with my three month old grandbaby for a time. my daughter had to return to her job and mine graciously understood (bless).<br />
<br />
so here we are, hum de dum dum, wee pip and i (in baby <i>heaven </i>i am). will be back soon. i hope. (how do you mama's do it all?) :)<br />

hello dear friends, above is only one reason i've been away from this space so much, the biggest reason, and perhaps i am writing to myself now, is the laptop | camera issues that began in summer. i'm trying so hard to resolve them (short of buying new equipment, which is not going to happen any time soon). it's taking time, but i'm getting there (hope hope). thank you for continuing to grace my blog with your kind sweet comments and thoughts. all really and truly treasured.<br />
<br />
and now, i'm utterly thrilled to heaven and back to introduce my two week old granddaughter, piper. she is already becoming familiar with two of her grandmother's passions, knitting and photograpy (i haven't told her i love to travel too, but there is time for that) :)<br />
<br />
her first knit is this little gown. it has a drawstring bottom and buttons at the shoulders. it's from the book 'baby collection' by kelbourne woolens, the pattern is mollie. i knit much of this while she slept in my arms. baby heaven is where i'm at. it's made with 100% mill spun merino wool, dyed with madder root by camilla fiber co. gifted by a dear friend. i added antique mother of pearl buttons and a silk ribbon to gather the bottom. to keep my hands busy, to channel joy, show my love.<br />
xxx lori<br />

back again! i hope you are well and enjoying the season! it is truly autumn here, after a (too warm) spell, we've finally settled on perfect shawl wearing weather. i've taken a couple adventures, met lovely friends, saw amazing things, would you like to come along? again, no camera, only iphone photos were taken. maybe it has been all the travel of late, but the need to go light came first....</div>

I live on the north west coast of Ireland and trawl the beaches here for sea glass and smoothed pieces of crockery. I would love to add some Californian glass to my collection. As for the book I'll definitely have to try and order it somewhere if I don't win it! Glad you had a lovely anniversary</span><br />

perhaps, it would have been a good idea to write a bit about these photos, and i will possibly come back to do that, but for now, i'd like to share the last post i have of shetland, of the grand adventure taken this summer. everyday, it's in my heart, the place, the people, and most of all the friendships made. it really was one of the most <i>brilliant</i> adventures of my life.<br />

we stayed in the <a href="http://www.oceanfrontmagic.com/room.php?room=driftwood"><span style="color: #38761d;">driftwood cottage</span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
indeed the most charming place we've ever stayed on this continent. alegria has several cottages to choose from (that is the hard part, how to choose?) and a few rooms in the main house as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the driftwood gives a feeling of coming home, even though we don't have our own loft</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
bedroom, wood burning stove, private garden and a kitchen with a hand hewn wood table...</div>

i made tiny knitted leaves for this pair, for another pair, pom poms.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
these bottoms measure 7 x 9 inches. i don't think any of the numbers</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
are terribly important, but i think the cast on amount needs to be divisible by 2 (for the ribbing)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i made a very small newborn pair and cast on 84 stitches. as soon as baby arrives,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i'll have a better idea of how these fit! for now it's fun to experiment.</div>

even though i've taken all the tours a few times, i could take the upstairs tour a dozen more (or even more!). the library is <i>amazing. </i>each guide offers something a bit different too, different stories and anecdotes. this time i learned that first lady grace coolidge was once trapped in the elevator. when she was finally found and asked if she were okay, she answered yes, she could yodel and she had her knitting.<br />

helloo and oh dear. i hope all is well with you! i've been very neglectful of this space. i'm dreaming of a week at home, no work, or travel...just quietly staying home and catching up on the big and little things. that is unlikely to happen before october (today is already the first day of fall!) a bit of life here lately then, in a nutshell (all photos taken with iphone)...</div>

this was the second most important thing i'd hoped to see on my visit to edinburgh, to view the great tapestry of scotland. when i arrived at the parliament i checked in with the visitors desk, thinking they might suggest the best way to see the tapestry. the gentleman there asked me if i would like to stitch on a panel right now! YES!! he guided me down a hallway, through a door, into a large room where i met two ladies. stitching!<br />

one evening (it's about 10pm in this photo) i was trying to find my way to a restaurant that had been suggested. consulting my iphone, trying to determine which way was south east...when out of the fog came a girl, chatting on her mobile. i apologetically interrupted, excuse me? do you know where this place is? (pointing at my phone). she did not. but asked if i had a name of the restaurant. yes! she did in fact know of the place and i should follow her...<br />

off we went, at a brisk pace, her telling me how she was to board a bus tomorrow for glasgow, she was going to be singing in the commonwealth games! oh wowee! meanwhile, we are taking 'shortcuts', through a park and back streets, i had no idea where we were. eventually we stopped, on a busy street, right where i asked to be. and just like when she had appeared, out of nowhere, she was gone, with a wave and a smile.<br />

here is reason number one for coming to edinburgh. to see this house. robert louis stevenson, beloved author, traveller, poet, was born here. on 13th november 1850. (a plaque beside the door declares this). waking early one morning, with map in hand, i walked the two miles (or so) to the thing i wanted to see most. on 8 howard place on a quiet tree lined street, i found it. </div>

i don't know what i expected, but i don't think i could have imagined being alone here. i stood for perhaps thirty minutes, and didn't see another soul. a wonder. i took many photos (with too many cameras) picked a few leaves for my journal. thought of favorite poems...'swallows travel to and fro and the great winds come and go and steady breezes blow bearing perfume, bearing love'. rls<br />
<br />
it was an extraordinary moment. i've been a collector of robert louis stevenson for many years, vintage books and ephemera have found their way into my hands and heart...my eldest daughter read a poem of rls at our wedding and on our honeymoon we visited western samoa, on the island of upolu, we saw his home vailima and his final resting place.<br />

hello! thank you for your kindness and interest in these shetland posts. i think it's important to keep a record, but mostly i think it's important to share. if it were to help another in trip planning, that would be the best thing! and if it were to bring a bit of 'armchair travel' love to someone, that would be excellent too! this post is mostly about the boat trip we took while in shetland, but first a few more things that we saw and did...</div>

we did visit the <a href="http://www.jamiesonsofshetland.co.uk/"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">jamieson mill</span></a>, shetlands only commercial mill, hopefully i'll be able to find those photos to share as well. but today we are at laurence odie, a beautiful mill and shop with one of the most fantastic things i've ever seen a machine do! see the large green machine this young man is working at? he is feeding shetland sweaters (machine knit) through the roller, they would go in flat (ish) and come out fluffed up....</div>

...before we leave for our first field trip, i wanted to share some of the lovely local people we met at burrastow house. ted and nancy had come for dinner at the b & b and we were sharing an intimate dining room together. when ted saw our cameras he insisted his wife show us her beautiful photos of a recent simmer dim, the magic twilight time here in the far north. well done nancy, gorgeous!<br />

just like this post, it's incomplete. there really was no way to document all the wonderful things that happened on this trip. i tried my best though, filled almost ninety pages! i didn't add the photos of the second part of this days field trip to this post, the textile museum (for fear of the post becoming too long). oh dear. if there is still an interest, i'll keep sharing! there is a LOT more!</div>

'do not worry about the fog' these words were coming from my kind (but inebriated) seatmate on the tiny aircraft scheduled to take off for sumburgh airport, shetland islands. 'we'll be diverted to norway if it gets too bad!'<br />
<br />
luckily, i missed no flights or connections on my travels to the edge of the world. (i did suffer my share of not so good luck though, completely my own fault, more on that later). i'd already spent a couple of days in edinburgh, before jumping on the flight north (still need to share that city adventure too). we made it to shetland, without any mishaps or any detours to norway. :)<br />
<br />
mary jane and gudrun were there to pick us up, kathy cadigan and paula butzi and i had all taken the same flight from edinburgh. we drove straight to sumburgh lighthouse, and within an hour of taking our first steps on the island, we saw puffins.<br />

if i could, i would have stayed here all day and the next day too. i know now why puffins are so loved, they are every bit as charming and adorable as their portraits show. the way they tilt their little heads (they are much smaller than i'd thought!) and waddle around. and when they fly! it's hilarious, their wings beat madly and all the while their orange feet hang down. what a grand start to this adventure...<br />

there is so much to share, i still don't know where to begin, our group was extraordinary, so lovely, really so talented and beautiful and kind and inspiring! and fun! each and everyone. and then there were the friends i'd come to know previously online (hello <a href="http://instagram.com/clairedupont">claire</a>, <a href="http://coco-knits.blogspot.com/">nicole</a>, <a href="http://www.kathycadigan.com/">kathy</a>. truly gorgeous women inside and out). i did fill my journal, though that was difficult to find time for, we did wear our bressays! and i think its safe to say we all experienced SO MUCH, and for me, so much more than i ever dreamed. at the risk of sounding overboard, i had one of the best times of my life. thanking the most lovely (adorable) tour leaders ever, gudrun johnston and maryjane mucklestone, you were outstanding, i really did not want it to end.<br />

home again, hello!<br />
<br />
my travels took me ten thousand and eighty four miles, five thousand forty two each way to the shetland isles. flying back i read an article in a british airways on board magazine. it said that if a journey has so many places where so many things have happened, it must be much longer than it seems to be; our perception of reality is so much based on our memories.<br />
<br />
that would explain why i don't know where to begin. oh my goodness, what a trip. back soon, with hopefully more to share. have a lot of sleep to catch up on first. was afraid to close my eyes in shetland, really didn't want to miss a thing. i've missed being here too, so looking forward to catching up, hope you are all well!<br />

dear friends, my deepest heartfelt thanks for coming here, leaving such beautiful comments, for putting up with my going on about my upcoming trip, about Shetland. well, the time is here, i leave this morning, first for Scotland, to Edinburgh, for a few days, and then Shetland. i won't be back here in this space until august (after returning). BUT...if you have an interest there will be posts, from Shetland. on instagram. from Gudrun Johnston, Mary Jane Mucklestone, Kathy Cad, Nicole Dupois and Claire Dupont and myself. it will be my first time posting 'from the field', we'll see how it goes! (i am loritimesfive)<br />
last night on instagram some of us toasted to our trip, i got ready with a wee dram of whiskey. sometimes, it is just the perfect thing.<br />
take good care, see you in a couple weeks! xxx loriLori annhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02860428306713379828noreply@blogger.com23tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-72761487038033350722014-07-18T22:00:00.000-07:002014-07-18T22:04:11.802-07:00ANTHOLOGY 1 by MADDER<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
