Did have a lot of fun meeting with a seamstress about having my costume made for the Time Traveller's ball. She was excited to do it, I was excited about her enthusiasm. It's going to be (surprise!) black with red piping and red lining for the skirt. Now I need to get a hat and a snood and I'm in business!
And, gosh, the sunset over the Olympics was beautiful (she lives in West Seattle, so I could see it from the porch of her house). It makes me sad that the summer's almost over and I haven't gone kayaking even once or so much as held a croquet mallet in my hand. I don't see how I'm going to remedy that any time soon. Maybe Sunday morning ...
