east coast trip

I recently returned to Arizona after spending several weeks on the East Coast.  I had a great time.Visited with my sisters,parents and my daughter in Boston.  This post will be about my trip with little about my knitting. While on my trip I worked on 2 shawls.  I needed small projects that I could travel with on plane,train,and bus so I don't have much to show. On a sad note I found out one of my favorite yarn stores Purl Diva in Brunswick Maine is closing.  It was a great yarn store with the nicest staff. Fortunately there are plenty of other yarn stores in Maine.
 I went to the Common Ground Fair in Unity Maine.  This fair is unique to Maine- It is a celebration of the rural life and all products must be made in Maine.  Food is all local and must be organic.  It is quite a sight and a lot of fun.  There are all kinds of farming classes.
