So, in an effort to make up to Penny for missing her big Six Oh birthday, I made her an apron. It's a bit on the bright side but I hope she likes it. Can you see the tulle? Here's a hint, hemline and neckline. The question I was asked, was will I make one for each of the gal pals. Quick answer is NO. Way too much work.
I forgot Bob's birthday too. This is becoming a bit of a trend. Jill's birthday is June 28th and hopefully it won't slip my mind between now and then. I've got a little something planned for her that I'm thinking she'll really enjoy.
I've been doing some bike riding lately which is good because Ride the Rockies starts next week. Today we went to the Front Range and rode from Bear Creek Park to the Genesse exit using Lookout Mountain and Hwy 40. I'm not sure where we were most of the time but it was a nice ride with a steady climb. On the way back we rode up to Red Rocks. That was actually the toughest part of the ride. There was one point where you'd swear the road was flat and yet I was barely moving in granny gear. Very discouraging but thankfully didn't last long. The descent from there was beautiful but the road isn't in very good condition so you really had to stay focused and not get distracted by the fantastic scenery.
Tommorow we're going to do Ute Pass and on Wednesday we may do Loveland Pass and Montezuma. Bob and rode up to Montezuma on Sunday, then went over Swan Mountain Road. It was a tad chilly and crazy windy but the wind was behind us going up to Montezuma and we took ourselves out of it by taking Swan Mtn instead of going around the lake. Shortly after we got home it started to snow again. It was snowing earlier in the morning. The weather has just been nuts. Snow in June for crying out loud!
Well, back to the sewing room.
