Summer is over! (almost)

It's been a busy one as summers go. We got to go to Colorado on our vacation. This was all before the horrible flooding, of course. Those poor people. It's a lovely region and they are just taking a pummeling!
 
This was at the Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs. It was a very hot and muggy day, but we had a great time.
 
Been back for three weeks now, but the vacation glow is still there a bit. More than anything, I am longing for a simpler life, one with more time for family and less time wasted on commutes and such.
That would involve moving to a smaller community. Toronto is just too big and does not have the infrastructure to support so many people.
 
On the crafting front, been making toys for penboy. Made some hedgehogs and a bunny. All crochet. A teddy bear is next on the agenda.
