I'm so excited to share our road trip with you.  I left home in Indiana early in the morning and drove to Kentucky to pick up my mom.  After scones and a large cup of caffeine coffee we were ready to load up mom's overnight bag and get the road trip started.  We had a general idea that we wanted to head towards Nashville, Tennessee so we drive south.  We drove as far as we were familiar and had to buy an atlas - smarter than asking for directions. 

We arrived in Clarksville, Tennessee to visit the 
ENCHANTED YARN SHOP located in a busy shopping center.   Rolynn, the shop's owner welcomed us.  There were plenty of yarns and spinning wheels displayed for purchase.  There was a bit of renovation going on but the shop wasn't missing a beat.  The fiber stock was depleted and Rolynn explained she just had a large group come in who wiped her out of fiber.  Rolynn's puppy dog was so cute and gets to be at the shop every day.  Lucky dog! In a comfy sitting space Rolynn welcomes anyone to stop by and stitch.  Sign up for a class today!

What I'm reading now.....

Maggie Sefton writes a good murder mystery and entertains you with activities in her YLS discussing knitting, crochet, felting wool, spinning yarn in their classes while you're trying to figure out "Who did it?"  There is a series of 10 books she has written in the same fashion.  I have read three-quarters of the way through Skein of the Crime and I still haven't figured out who killed Holly.  One Maggie Sefton murder mystery almost read and 9 more to read.  Post a comment if you've read a Maggie Sefton mystery!

Saturday

Grinny Possum Fiber Art Shop

After visiting the fiber and music festival in Charlestown, we drove to the City of Jeffersonville.  That's where the Grinny Possum Fiber Art Shop is located.  I was so excited to finally be there after reading about her shop and there was a note on the door.  They were at the fiber and music festival.  I peeked in through the door and it's a so cute in there.  Since it's just a couple of hours drive from my town, I'll just have to drive back another day.
