Yet Another Art Museum!
Today we went to the Albany Institute of History and Art. My parents friend, Hudson Talbott, is an author and they were doing a special event for his new book River of Dreams, about the history of the Hudson River.
A local composer had turned his book into a musical that was performed at local school districts. They had one of the groups of students come and perform some of the songs from the book as Hudson read the book!
It was pretty neat. Brian posted a bit of video about it.. click here.
This time we nearly got out of the museum without anyone touching and breaking something!! Of course the FIRST thing one of our kids touched fell down!! Fortunately it was a foam board sign at an exhibit that looked like it had fallen down a few times already!! Eeks.. it wasn’t held up by much just double stick tape..
Other than that we all pretty much came out unscathed. It’s a nice museum if you are in the area you should visit!

Black Friday…
I actually went to a store today.. being that we are in rural upstate NY it wasn’t all that crowded or exciting.. it seemed like they did have more ‘event staff’ on hand than customers..
Hey well I got the deal I wanted.. so it’s all good! And hey I didn’t even have to stand in line to check out!

Weird Stuff..
I know I posted at least one entry in the last two weeks! Really I did..
It was about 4 planes in 48 hours! I took another short trip to Texas this time for my brother’s wedding!
Since then my camera has turned into a brick! So that sort of puts the brakes on because what is a knitting blog without photos!! eeks!
I will try to get Brian’s camera to cooperate and see if I can’t get some pics of items I have finished and have in progress! (That would be a total of Two!!)
And I think we will have a little destash action this week and I have some new books to tell you about, and even a give away!
So stay tuned I am trying to bounce back and get going again!
Paying the bills…
Coming April 13th
