wild day

while much of the eastern seaboard was lashed with heavy rain yesterday courtesy of miss irene, newfoundland was blessed with the warmest day of the year (high 20's with a humidex of over 30) and along with the heat and humidity we had warm gusty wind. keith took this photo at the cabin - the wind rushing down the blomidon mountains and over the cabin to pick up the ocean.

i was home spinning and dyeing (my first day back at "structured" work). and making quick forays into the yard to witness fury of the wind in our tall trees, the leaves twisting in every direction.

and i spun up a "hurricane season" yarn.
