Somewhere in Kauai

Two inches tall 
Pointy red hat 
Seahawk Sweater
Brown Pants 
Enjoys beer and pool parties
I know I know. I should have posted this a year ago but I kept hoping he would find his way home.
However I have learned that Gnomes can not be trusted.

CAN NOT BE TRUSTED.

I can't blame him. If I could have I would have stayed in Kauai also.
We could have lived the rest of our days quite happily sunning on the beach, drinking Primo beer by the pool, chasing wild chickens and learning how to surf.

I don't know when he made his move and escaped my trusty pocket but I know it happened before we moved on to Poipu in south Kauai.

I know I had him in my bag when we checked out of our Waipouli condo but he never arrived with us at the Plantation in Poipu.

As I mentioned before, he likes beer.

He loved the Seahawks game we took him too before we flew to the islands.
Ready to rock out at the Hawks Game

It's possible one of the wild chickens took him I suppose.


He was always trying to catch one.

On the trail to the Indiana Jones Rope Swing

We took him four wheeling and he threw a fit until we took his picture near the pasture where Jurassic Park was filmed.

He loved Anini Beach and Hanalei. Mostly for the big beer the waitress bought him.

Refreshing pacifico in Hanalei

He saw the Kilauea Light House and all the wild weird ducks hanging around there.

insisting this is the best view at Kilauea Lighthouse

If you see him whilst touring around Kauai can you send him home.

It kind of hurt my feelings that he didn't want to stay with us...

Every now and then my husband will hear me mumble a curse upstairs about 'that little f#ck%&! is still in Hawaii where I want to be'

I think one hit the bar on the way over to boost his courage

In the meantime some of his friends showed up over the weekend and wanted to know where he was and they insisted I post this message on social media to find their friend.


They keep trying to get into my purse. They say for a nap but I suspect they are trying to get my wallet to buy airplane tickets.


The little gang of Gnomes and myself thank you in advance for your help.

SSYC... My First Official Yarn Crawl...

It's true... I've never actually participated in a yarn crawl or LYS tour. When I worked at So Much Yarn I had the pleasure of working the weekend of the LYS Tour but I've never done it. Well, the SSYC, South Sound Yarn Crawl covers 9 shops that aren't included for whatever reason in the Seattle LYS Tour that covers around 25 shops in the area. Maybe they're too far off the beaten path. It's not because they aren't in Seattle because there are shops way way way out of town that are included in the Seattle LYS tour. Whatever the reason, it's not important. What is important is that Mary and I both took Friday off and hit the road. I caught the 7:15 Ferry to Kingston, Arrived at Mary's about 8:00. Mary and I have the same china. Mine came from my Grandmother, her's came from her mom. Tried making friends with her fluffy dog Mae. Someday she'll come to love me, for now I'll respect her tenative personality and love her fro...

Remembering...

I don't know what karmic cosmic angels were flitting around today but they led me to the coffee aisle at the grocery store. More specifically it led me to the international moments. Which led me to thoughts of my grandmother. I loved her. I knew deep in my bones that she loved me. Grandma loved her International Moments coffees. Just smelling them. Holding the tin (though it's different now) Brings back memories of being with my grandma. She said these were her special treat and she'd make one for me to. Grandma made the best fresh blackberry pie. I know they were fresh because when she came to visit us in Bellevue she'd make us help her pick blackberries. She was the master of Christmas cookies, chocolate chip cookies and raspberry freezer jam. I make freezer jam from time to time and it reminds me of summer visits to Boise. Helping grandma in her garden, making sun tea, and smelling her roses. Sometimes, I buy a tin of Interna...
