Treasured Memories


It was so beautiful here today with the sunshine. Perfect day for a drive and so I ventured up toward Belfair and then Bremerton. I was trying to find a temp agency up in Bremerton but gave up after half an hour of driving in circles and then headed toward Silverdale/Poulsbo area since I don't think I've been up there in about 20 years. Spent a few hours window browsing in Poulsbo enjoying the holiday lights, blending in with the locals, thinking of all the places it would be nice to come back and visit, and found the yarn shop :-). All I can say is "wow"! What was great is that this was the first shop that I have come across since my trip to Portland last month, that carries Bariloche yarn. Oh I was happy to find that out.


Upon the many window shops I peered through I think I was the most intrigured by the artgallery and the beautiful glass figurines/paperweights displayed. The glass heart paperweight collection was so pretty. It reminded me of a lady I know who would love to have one sitting on her desk at work in her office in Redmond :-).
One of the reasons I drove up so far is because I hadn't been up that way in so long I was simply curious and the other was to honestly see how far it was/long it would take me to drive during rush hour time since I am looking for work that direction. It's not too bad but Poulsbo would be pushing it. Bremerton is certainly far enough and Belfair would be just right. Glad to be home though this evening.
