It's a good thing you have nice weather down there as that knitted tire cover would be filthy here in a matter of minutes on the roads.<br /><br />You know if you are so inclined to knit, and have yarn at hand, it might be a way to make a few extra dollars. :-)Lois@Living In Denimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16368939902298894344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791768581127769171.post-31283471723710096912016-02-15T12:41:14.083-08:002016-02-15T12:41:14.083-08:00You are funny!

I wonder were the occupants of that<br />vehicle Danes on Holiday as it has the flag on Denmark on the rear window.<br />It would appear that someone in that vehicle is "nuts" about knitting, ha ha.<br /><br />Feathers on a lamp shade??? I would think that would, besides your cat making "mince<br />meat" of the plumes, to be a possible fire hazard. Hopefully the plumed lamp was just for<br />show and never turned on.<br />That sure is a magnificent tulip tree in full bloom.<br />Summer almost over here - some areas did get extreme heat - Brisbane this year<br />was hot during some days but not one "sauna" night as is the norm. I think <br />the weather has forgotten February and I hope that in the future it does the<br />same, at least whilst I am still here. <br />Cheers<br />ColinHuggybearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17517411617275367396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791768581127769171.post-65631628475980809462016-02-10T11:36:05.787-08:002016-02-10T11:36:05.787-08:00wow what a great treewow what a great treeGosiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14604712540141917583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791768581127769171.post-19161166894365449262016-02-10T11:22:29.309-08:002016-02-10T11:22:29.309-08:00Oh, love that quote Cynthia.
