The Conservatory

There hasn't been much knitting while I've been here. Actually, there has been more sleep than you'd expect. The past few weeks were extremely busy at home and I'm catching up on lost sleep.
Auburn Wave in Jilly with Cashmere from Dream in Color. The yarn is great. We've put in an order with Dream in Color for more and hope that we will have it in time for the Woodstock Fleece Festival.

You can't come to Vegas without visiting the Conservatory at the Bellagio. It brings a smile to your face seeing all the flowers and plants. The people who come up with the displays are amazing.

This display makes me smile for another reason. Fall is coming which means that sweater weather is coming.


From the Bellagio website
Admire the essence of every season recreated with exceptionally gorgeous plants, flowers and trees thoughtfully arranged to inspire full splendor. Specially designed lighting spotlights every flower to accentuate its best features. To ensure the Conservatory & Botanical Gardens maintains magnificence 365 days a year, 140 expert horticulturists theatrically arrange gazebos, bridges, ponds, and water features uniquely for each season. Treat yourself to this unrivaled attraction's ever changing personality for the Holidays, Chinese New Year, spring, summer, and fall!









Now it's nap time. I went to bed at 9 last night and was up at 6 this morning. A short nap will let me stay up and watch TV tonight. The Big Brother finale and the first episode of the new Survivor. Then I will get some knitting accomplished.

Fabulous Fall Fotos! :) Sorry, I couldn't control myself on that one. Seriously, I just love all the color. We're back in Ohio now where it is still very green. It'll be a little while longer before we get the Fall color here.
