The REAL Lions Cascade?

I just picked the name "lions cascade" out of the air by combining two random words, but apparently in Peterhof, Russia there's a real lion's cascade fountain. Isn't it gorgeous!? I think I'll put it on my "things to do before I die" list. Lions Cascade @ The Lions Cascade!

Christmas crafting is coming along very nicely. I'm working through it very quickly, so hopefully there won't be any midnight knitting on Christmas Eve. I finished all the squares for my daddy's blanket! My first afghan, I'm so excited. I'll block them tonight, and work on sewing them together and a border. They would have been blocked but Susie got her paw stuck in a Wegman's bag and ran around the house like a maniac because she was so scared. She also peed herself. The smell was awful, almost like a skunk, but I've never heard of cats excreting poweful smelling urine as a distration. I didn't think my first night back from Shenandoah I'd be washing my kitty instead of watching the horrible B movies on Sci-Fi.

In yarn pr0n news, I organized my yarn into two under-the-bed boxes. Big White has all yarn that has an accompaning project. (ex 3 skeins of Sugar 'N Cream for a Fat Bottom Bag) I wrote them all down, and I have about 26 projects lined up, mostly for me. :) Big Blue has all the true stash yarn - yarn that's left over from other projects, yarn I had to buy, and a bunch of acrylic I bought when I was just learning. That's going to go for either afghans for family, or charity. I know I'm going to make (at least) one scarf and send to Knit Your Bit, scarves for WWII veterans.
