Sheepdogs and such

What have I been doing? Well, I have been knitting. That is my Pelerine. It doesn't look dramatically different, but in a relaxed state it is 19" long now (including the neckline, but not along the line of increases-- which is longer) so I am making good progress.   I worked on it some while I was here: Any guesses? That is the St. Lawrence River in the background. The post that is decorated to look like a Canadian Mountie is a hint, as is the border collie.   I went to the Kingston Sheepdog Trials . Oh my goodness what a time I had!  Between good friends, great food (have any of you been to Kingston?) I am so going back. First of all, there is water everywhere (or almost so). View of Kingston, Ontario from Fort Henry The food we ate was fabulous. We ate dinner at  Wooden Heads ,  Olivea , and  Chez Piggy , and they were all excellent meals.  The good company was lovely, as well.  This was a fun dive...
