up north

We spent last week in snowy North Dakota helping out

with a little granddaughter that had her tonsils out.

 

Where most people go south for the winter...

I guess we went looking for more winter.

 

 

I finished this raccoon pocket doll before we left.

I like to take small knitting projects on the road

but it's usually the no-brainer dish rags that I make.

 

I enjoyed reading this book, "The Meaning Of Names" while there.

 

Today I am drinking peppermint tea

while we wait for the wind to arrive

 to blow around the almost 10 inches of snow

we received last week.

It's definitely been a long winter here in the Dakotas.
