The Redwoods Report 5

Thursday Morning at The Redwoods

It really gets busy around here on Thursdays and every other day, too!

After my morning walk, I stopped by to watch the Line Dancers. 
This is the Intermediate Group practicing for a show they will be putting on soon. 
There is also a Beginners' Group and a Walkers'Group. 


Then I showed up at Sarah Oliver's Knitting Group, "The Purlettes". 
You can read about this wonderful business venture on her web site, 
The Purlettes crank out several bags each from Thursday to Thursday. 

I was able to do just one. Here it is in all its glory!




Daphne is working on a Bridal Clutch Bag, the finished product is in front of her.


 Sarah receives the knitted bags each week, she pays the knitters for their work.
The bags are then felted and made into beautiful creations.
Gumps is one of her retailers. 
Be sure to check her web site to see some of her gorgeous bags. 


After checking in with knitters, 
I drove up to the Earthquake Store to fill my Grab and Go bag with the suggested emergency supplies. 
I got back just in time for the Garden Cart to show up ..... so many goodies this week. 
I loaded up on lettuce, kale and radishes. 
Just in time to make myself a delicious salad straight from our own organic garden.

Whew, it is almost time for a NAP!

Oh my goodness. I had no idea purses went for so much money! You've got a lot going on there. I'd have to say I'd enjoy the knitting and would love to eat from that garden you talk about.
