Rain, autumn, time for knitting!!

 Hurray!! The first rain after nearly 3 months!!

  Happily for us the Medicane (Mediterranean Hurricane) hasn't arrived yet in Sparta and I hope we only get the rain and not the severe winds, hail and whatever more this Medicane brings. We have the Taygetus mountain range to protect us a bit. 

 

 The leaves are turning yellow and red, one of my pumpkins is ready, the other ones still need some time. The vegetable garden needs manure after this rain and after that it's time to plant the winter veggies. 

 

 At A & B Creating we want to start several groups. We have already the Quilting Bee, and next to that we are going to create a knitting and a crocheting group. People who come together once a week and work for a good cause. 

Making baby and children's stuff to donate or to sell and donate the money. Last year we made some lovely knitted jackets.

 So, if you like to join us, leave a message and we will contact you. Our space is big enough to keep the distance needed due to covid and we take all the necessary precautions. 

 

 Like I took precautions to prevent the water from flooding the basement. My yard is much lower than street level because the town put asphalt on asphalt on asphalt instead of removing the old and putting new. Now my water outlet is under instead of above the street. With thunder storms our street becomes a fast moving river and the water  comes with force into the yard and then the basement. Not only my basement, more basements in the area have been flooded during heavy rainfalls. So, thumbs up that it doesn't happen this time!!!!!!!!
