Laurence Harbor

We went to Laurence Harbor one afternoon after hubby came home from work. I needed sand! I decided to join in a "knitting swap" where I put together a package of knit stuff to send to a total stranger and a different total stranger sends me a package. The theme was summer fun so I decided to include some New Jersey sand.

We finally made it to Laurence Harbor. We tried to go once before but we didn't make it. I'm glad we picked the day that we did though because we got to see two planes practicing for the Red Bull Air Race. We had been seeing ads for the air race for weeks and I really wanted to go but tickets were pretty pricey. The race wasn't anywhere near Laurence Harbor but I guess that's where some of the planes were practicing. It was neat to watch although I did feel a little ill watching the planes make some of the turns that they did. :-)

Back to my swap...a hand knit item was supposed to be included in my swap package so I decided to knit Argante -- a really pretty shawl. I really like the pattern and already have yarn picked out for a shawl for me!
