Manchester Christmas Market

I got my Christmas markets this year!  Here are some pictures from Manchester.  We had a good time our first night in England wandering around the market.  Took their train from our hotel to get there.

Top Forty

For the past week I have been doing this as my daily project, so next photo will hopefully show a lot of progress.  I'm just happy that I have 40% done!

Rural To Poor Edge

Cows on the side of the road remind me of eastern Europe, but that's about all that does.  They belong to the people in the unroofed cinderblock houses pictured on the side of the road in these photos.  These are what people have been living in for years.

Yarn From Kendal

Found this yarn in a little shop in Kendal.  Now to figure out what to make.

To The Edge

I am able to work to the edge now on this.

Giraffe Gate

Can't you see the huge, beautiful community of high end housing?  Neither can I.  But that's what's supposed to be here.  If you drive down the rutted track, there's a pretty nice beach, though.  This is from the real estate boom that went bust with the oil decline.

Closing In

I am so very close to halfway done.  Soon, my pretty!
