As you all know, the NY Sheep and Wool Festival is taking place this weekend up in Rhinebeck NY. Al has been telling me about it since she went last year and I haven't really had an interest in going. Until now.
Because of my knee and the facts that I don't like crowds or waiting in lines has made Rhinebeck not very appealing to me. Of course, when I know I can't do something, it makes me want to do it more. I've been on Twitter and everyone's Tweeting about it and I really want to go. I've gotten to the point that I asked Glenn if he knew anyone with a wheelchair! Talk about desperation. Someone suggested that I go on Sunday because the crowds are smaller so that may be an option. Today is the Ravelry meet up and I'm sorry not to be able to be there. There are so many nice people on Ravelry who I've gotten to know through their posts and their blogs. I'm sure everyone will have a ball today.
If I don't go tomorrow, I'll just have something to look forward to for next year. Maybe I'll hobble out to an LYS and buy something to make me feel better.
Hope everyone there has a great time and buys lots of smooshy, delicious yarn!

I hope you can make it on Sunday. Living in Illinois I have yet to make it to Rhinebeck, but my plan is in the next two or three years to road trip out there!
Hope you have a yarny weekend, no matter where you end up going. :)
Hopefully your knee feels well enough to go this weekend. One day I'll join all those great knitters too, but for now I just read about on the blogs.:-)
Have a great weekend.
Retail therapy: do it!
I feel for you w/ the knee deal - same issue here. Thinking happy joint thoughts for you!
I'm so glad this post was dead wrong. : )
