At the moment 3 of our friends from England are visiting…………………….. just when the weather in California decided to remember it was actually winter and start raining.

Boo!

(But I guess we need the rain to top up our reservoirs otherwise we are going to be short this year!)

So we drove to Yosemite this weekend and had funtimes doing a jigsaw, eating pizza, playing cards, and wandering about taking pictures in the rain:

….and just before we left I finally finished a work in progress that has been in progress for so long it is quite embarassing!

It is the Space Princess hat from Knits for Nerds by Joan of Dark. I started it about a year ago, completed one of the buns, then didn’t do anything until after we moved. I had packed one of the balls of wool to do it…. did the other bun, started the hat… ran out of wool! So I had to wait until our stuff was delivered before I could get the other one and finish it! Done! And in time that I could give it to Lizzie! Hurrah!
