We enjoyed a wonderful breakfast with our host friends on our third day of vacation, and then went into town to meet an old friend of my husband's; a man he worked for for many years but never actually spent any time with. Though relatively young, he has recently been afflicted with Parkinson's disease and his wife has Alzheimer's. This gentleman was quite the mover and shaker and was always immaculately groomed. He is still careful about his appearance but has very limited ability to communicate. It was a bittersweet moment for my husband to see this man who he looked up to for so many years. Time marches on as they say.
We left the lunch in Columbus and drove to Dublin, nearby, to check out a knitting shop called
Knitting Temptations.
What a great find! They had a tremendous selection and the place was adorable. Very inviting and in a really nice part of town. I made my first conquest of the trip! A
book of Christmas stocking knitting patterns. BINGO.
I looked at all the yarn, but thought I'd wait till the next shop to make a second purchase. Gotta make it last!
