DSM, friends and my favorite model gets a new sweater

i spent a few days in iowa for work. i took these pics on the plane on the way back. i also took some in the airport at 630 in the am and was convinced i'd get cuffed, interrogated and put on several "lists." good thing no one paid attention...
i finally see some iowa farmland.

sorry, but this was just too freggin' awesome to pass up.

luke is getting a new sweater! he has outgrown this one so i am going to make a new one for him. his dad said that he enjoyed wearing the striped one, so i feel i've done well. i told him to keep it for their next kid, too.
for the next project, i have chosen a moss stitch sweater with collar in the cotton DK from Number Three. so far i've accomplished a lot after starting tuesday night!


a boxty update...they are headed to the arlington street people's assistance network soon, hopefully. i hope they will be enjoyed.

also to follow up...the music goes on! more music postings soon. i'm glad that won't end. :)
