On Saturday, I went on a wine tasting tour with my sister, Reg and a few of her friends. The fun wasn't confined to the vineyards we visited. The "bus" (nicely outfitted with built-in bars, karaoke and a rockin' sound system) trip was like a traveling party!
Yesterday I attended a bridal shower for one of the VP's at work. Here are some of my Work Peeps: from left to right: Siobhan, Colleen, Kim, Sheri, Jeri, Mary and me! I am so lucky to have a job I love and be surrounded all day by some very nice people. And here's Siobhan (she was 2010 Central Catholic High School Rose Festival Princess), our summer intern and Gloria Holmes. 
And this is Kim Z., my wine buddy!
Sometimes knitters are stereotyped as old, staid ladies that sit around knitting stuff. If you were fortunate (and hip enough) to attend the Sock Summit held the weekend of July 30/31 at the Oregon Convention Center, the stereotype was blown out of the universe . . . literally. Not only was the vast array of yarn and knitting implements intoxicating - the people watching was out of this world. Older ladies with kool-aid dyed hair, young ladies proudly sporting their knitted stuff and even men were there. I dragged my sis, Reg, along with me but I think she had as much fun as I did! Best of all, the flash mob at the end of the day. Click on this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOUL_S6tVr8
