At the craft fair today, it was windy, rainy and quite chilly for an hour or so in the middle of the fair.  At one point, I glanced across the way at one of the neighboring booths, and saw a bit of most welcome blue sky…

Spotted these at the Book Sale room of today’s fair.  A couple weeks ago, I was at the library and overheard a very confused patron say that she thought titles were copyrighted, so how could multiple books have the same title?  She was mistaken.  As a side note, I’m pretty sure I’ve read both of these.

Doug and I planted a couple of these last year, and then it didn’t rain for 2 months, so we were pretty sure that was the end of them.  But they’ve both come back this year, and this one just started blooming!  Hooray for nature.

I know the Metro’s not a real paper (though it likes to think it is), but this front page still amused me greatly.

An LL Bean raincoat for $7.99?  Why, yes, thank you!  I’ll take it!

Went to the Martha’s Vineyard Mini Maker Faire (which was very Mini indeed), and there was a guy there who makes these beautiful wooden guitars by hand.

My friend Pat recently asked me if I’d ever noticed that the Harvard Lampoon building looks like a character from Thomas the Tank Engine.  And thanks to Pat, now I can never not see that.

Doug and I dug this up yesterday when we were doing yard work.  I’m assuming it’s a cow bone.  I wonder how old it is.

We are celebrating “Star Wars Weekend” at work, so I made these earrings.  I’m quite pleased with how they came out.  The Force must have been with me.
