& most of the day they looked like that.
There was a lovely little clearing, perfect to tuck my sitting spot into.
I brought plenty to do!
But of course I also spent a bunch of time just hanging out & relaxing, ESPECIALLY after rescuing Loiosh from the tree, oh my GODS
I got a bunch of sewing done, & made a suncatcher from the last piece of faceted glass I have.
It came out really nicely, I think!
I’d brought a bunch of the new pendulums so I could get good pictures of them, & came up with an impromptu photo station up a tree. There was a nice flattish bit just above the convenient branchlet, with a couple of patches of lichens to give some good contrast. & when I was done each one, I just hung it on the branchlet with the basket!
I was smart & brought lunch for all of us this time — treats for the boys, & bologna & cheese for me. I finally got round to using the cool reusable beeswax-coated lunch wrap thinger my Aunt Ann got me last giftmas.
It worked really well! The bread was still soft, which is REALLY impressive after a couple hours; usually in this climate it starts getting kinda dried out in like five minutes. Also it makes a nice plate-esque object.
It clouded over a couple times & there was near-constant thunder to the north & south, but this is the closest it got to me.
Apart from the CAT BASED EXCITEMENT of my last post, it was a really nice, low-key-relaxing day.
This was posted originally to my Patreon, a little over a week ago.
If you want to see these posts sooner, & not incidentally help support me & my cats in our travels & such, the way to do that is to sign up as one of my Patrons for as little as a buck a month.
I’d REALLY like that.
