The strawberries were delicious! Those overgrown rock like monsters at Meijer don't compare.
After that, we enjoyed a sunny day at the Burch cottage on Whitefish Lake. Brian navigated the pontoon, aka "green machine," about the lake....
I knit...
And at the end of the day, I had these...
My final review of two socks on one circular - I liked the fact that they were done simultaneously and that I could try them on along the way, but that's about it. I don't like the pointy toe, however, I could fix that by casting on more stitches to begin with. I didn't like that I was constantly having to untwist the strands from the two ends of the ball. I also found the cast off to make for a tight cuff. I did as the teacher instructed, switched up to larger size needles and cast off loosely, but I still found that it doesn't have much give. I'll probably try this pattern one more time, fair is fair. It's definitely not love at first sight.
Otherwise, Brian and I are still waiting for the keys to our house. The prior homeowner gave us the impression that she may be able to get them to us this weekend, but no call from the realtor yet. We made a trip to Menards this morning, I'm sure the first of many. We bought our first ladder, which I told Brian was a "big step in our lives." Haha.

No, I said "a big step." I was the funny one for once. You know, it's sometimes hard to beat out Brian in cracking the jokes.
That pontoon is nothing but what I effectionately refer to as the "Whitetrash pontooner"! I still want to call "pimp my ride" and have them really spruce it up!
