Pattern source: Knitting Vintage Socks / Nancy Bush
Yarn: Rowan 4 Ply Soft, 3 x 50 g, in shade Victoria
Needles: 2,5 mm
Modifications: I made the leg longer by adding 7 (!) pattern repeats (my legs are not that long!), shortened the heel flap (34 rows instead of 40 in the pattern), and in the toe I added some rows between the decrease rows.
A thumbs up from a paraglider pilot before his launch for another flight from Truleigh Hill. The wind wasn't right to keep him aloft for long, but the whoops of joy on the way down showed he enjoyed his trip, the long walk back up, probably less so.
A good evening #63 in the treasure hunt
...or "Yet Another Kerry Park Shot"
This shot was taken on the same night as the one posted in the comment section of "This Might Be You." The photogs were out in full force in Kerry Park as usual with a wide variety of equipment from pocket-sized Powershots to 5D MkIIs.
I was hoping for a few high clouds, but it ended up being a perfectly clear evening instead...plus the smog was starting to build up after a few days of no rain so Rainier was becoming a bit hazy. The light was good though, since I made it there in time to catch the the few moments before the sun dips below the horizon and after most of the city lights have been turned on. It's actually a fairly small window of time, but thankfully everyone in the Seattle metro area was at Kerry Park that night to capture it (OK...it wasn't that crowded...).
Dewdrops, Nature's tears, which she
Sheds in her own breast for the fair which die.
The sun insists on gladness; but at night,
When he is gone, poor Nature loves to weep.

Ampthill Park on an enjoyable wander one evening. With the sun right behind these trees the composition didn't take much choosing!
Tavira is a Portuguese city, situated at 37°07' north, 7°39' west in the east of the Algarve on the south coast of Portugal. It is 30 kilometres (19 miles) east of Faro and 160 kilometres (99 miles) west of Seville in Spain. The Gilão River meets the Atlantic Ocean in Tavira.
Tavira's origins date back to the late Bronze Age (1.000-800 BC). In the 8th century BC it became one of the first Phoenician settlements in the Iberian West. The Phoenicians created a colonial urban center here with massive walls, at least two temples, two harbours and a regular urban structure. Phoenician Tavira existed until the end of 6th Century BC, when it was destroyed by conflict.
he city has since been rebuilt with many fine 18th-century buildings along with its 37 churches. A 'Roman' (actually Moorish) bridge links the two parts of the town across the River Gilão. The church of Santa Maria do Castelo, built on the site of a Moorish mosque, holds the tombs of Dom Paio Peres Correia and his knights. The church dates from the 13th century and the clock tower has been remodeled from the original Muslim minaret.
The population is in the region of 25,000 inhabitants(municipality of Tavira) supporting a military base whilst the surrounding area is still fairly rural and undeveloped. This is now changing due to the demands of the tourist industry and opening of golf courses in the near vicinity. The beach for this town lies past the salt pans and is reached by a ferryboat that takes the visitor to the sand-bar island known as Ilha de Tavira, part of the Ria Formosa. The island and beaches can also be reached from the nearby footbridge in Santa Luzia.

The peaceful town of Tavira is a lovely retreat on the Portuguese south-east coast - luckily still lacking mass tourist resort development, Tavira remains ideal base for exploration of the eastern part of the Algarve region.
