The foothills of Lizard Ridge

Wow! Taking pictures during daylight hours makes such a difference!

Here's a dachshund's eye view of my progress on the Lizard Ridge afghan.  I've got 16 squares done so far (8 to go), but I might do a couple extras to get some prettier color schemes.

I've also managed to get Tammy hooked on the pattern - here's her very first square

Also per Tammy's request, Six Wierd Things about me!  

1.  I like lima beans.  Ummmm... yum.  (Really!)

2.  I hardly ever watch movies, but when I do, I really like ones that follow a particular formula - a bunch of different people and all these different stories and they all come together somehow in the end.   

3.  I was named after a prize-winning dairy cow.  (According to my dad, that is.  My mom vehemently denies this!)

4.   I've always lived in Missouri, except for that one year, when I lived in Spain. 

5.  I have a phobia of eyes.  I couldn't put contacts in my eyes until I was 22 (trying since 8th grade!) and I can't think of anything that creeps me out more than when people flip their eyelids inside out.  

6.  Sometimes, when I'm laughing at something, I start laughing really, really, really hard and can't stop for a looong time.  I think this first happened on a long car trip to Colorado with my family when I was about 12, and we started calling it "the jollies."  Usually this happens with really random things that just strike me as funny.  It happened at work once, which was a little embarrassing.  

It seems like everyone has already done this meme, but if anyone wants to.... go for it!

Cool picture! But it looks like you've got some blocking to do! :-)

I'm going to have to hear some stories about Spain!

Whoa, you're cruising on Lizard Ridge. I only have 4 squares done. You'll be done by the summer!

Hehe, the jollies. I think we all get that on occasion. I recently had something similar when my BF came home and told me one of his coworkers was leaving. To go to Panama. And attend break dancing school.

Very cool photo. Daylight does make a huge difference doesn't it! Interesting little bits about you - thanks for sharing.

Hello... I just checked out your site, and saw this afghan. I thought it was funny, because I've been working on this pattern too. I'm stalled on the seaming part of it, but I've knitted all the squares. I'll send you a picture once it's done.

Anyway, had fun seeing you guys this weekend!


love,
June
