We're not exactly being steeped in the coast culture.  It is way off season here, the lull before spring break, and we're not doing the fishing thing or any of the rest.  We're mostly just eating and watching curling and walking the dogs on the beach.  Who says retirement isn't exciting?


Zoe had fun in the surf with me.  We got hit by a couple of waves that went up to her stomach.  She runs from the first bit of foam but then jumps in with me once she gets over that.  Cool day and cold water but it was fun and she was game.











The parking bollards have crochet tops on them.  Maybe a hundred of them.  










It is the project of a local shop:










And they are really well done:










We got in our steps and came back home to rest before dinner.  Work, work,work.

"She began with only 82 bollard buddies, but the collection has grown to more than 300. Every year a couple go missing and a few anonymous ones appear, but the Bollard Buddies Facebook page has an album of more than 300 photos of the various buddies and their adventures."

The bollard buddies will be on display from Dec. 28 and taken down in March. Photos and more information about the bollard buddies can be found at www.facebook.com/yarnbombinginporta.

You may be out of season for some stuff but you this the bollard buddies just right!

'taken down in March' right before spring break during which they would every one disappear

We'll take some more pix tomorrow. Save you from finding them on FB.

What a lovely yarn bombing project. I am always impressed when people do that. I have never seen one on that scale, though.
