Hat Delivery to Kaiser

 
TODAY was the BEST hat delivery I think we've had so far.  We arrived at the Maternity Ward at the exact right time as most of the nurses were at the front desk and all we're so excited to look through the bag of 43 hats we gave them.  One of the nurses said that her patient just had twins, a boy and a girl and immediately selected two matching hats, and two of the other nurses picked hats for their patients.  Anne asked if the Moms appreciated the hats and there was a resounding YES from all of the nurses.  We are apparently the only group that donates hats so the nurses are thrilled when we arrive.

thank you Durango Yarn

During a long train/bus tour or Colorado (a beautiful state) I was working on scarves for Christmas at St Anthony's and ran out of yarn - heaven forbid. When our train arrived in Durango a wonderful site appeared - Durango Yarn.  It is a wonderful shop with a great variety of yarns at reasonable prices. 

 So if you are ever in Durango look for the shop.  It really is a - not to miss shop.
