This is about half of us, and I’m the one in the front on the right. It was a lot of fun. Thanks to all who came, and to the many, many well wishes from blogland.

Nate made another of his famous Miss Finch posters, this one was for everyone to sign.

Cool, no? You know what else? Cher, the store owner gave me 10 skeins of Misty Blue “Angora” by Elsebeth Lavold. What a gift! I was a bit struck by it. Thanks, Cher! And then there were many contributions to my “Laura Wants A Spinning Wheel” fund. More on that tomorrow.

Great party. Great food. Great friends. Thanks, everyone!
