Haiku's from Seattle

I am going to add all the Haiku's that I put on Postcards that I sent home to the boys. I decided that it would make the postcards more enjoyable for the kids.

The Pike Street Market
You find produce, fish flying
and the first Starbucks

Haiku for Today (Bobby Murcer)

Bobby Murcer was
followed Mantle as the star,
but was just himself

Born May 20, 1946 in Oklahoma City, OK
Died July 12, 2008

He had the unfortunate job of following Mickey Mantle as the star of the Yankees (who followed Dimaggio, Gehrig and Ruth).

He had a great career and was (by all accounts) a great person. Just being himself.

Ludington Lighthouse (Cross Stitch Pattern)

I finally finished the my cross stitch pattern that I created for the Ludington Lighthouse.

You can download the pattern here.

Here is a picture of the completed project.

I am hoping that I will create some other Michigan lighthouses from here on out. Ideally, I would like to create kits that museums could sell. I would just send them to them and they can keep all the proceeds.

I used an excellent freeware software. It is called KG-Chart for Cross Stitch.

For more information on the Ludington Lighthouse, please visit:
