With Pearl at the helm, it was time to leave paradise and head back to the Vancouver. The Sea to Sky corridor is a visually stunning drive.

We had joked about me spinning in the mountain, but the “extra”snow made that option a bit prohibitive. We busied ourselves with the multitude of knitting that we brought with us and the wheel never left the van.

As we chatted further along our trek, I lamented about how I didn’t manage to squeeze in the mountain spinning time. Pearl offered an awesome alternative…..”what about Shannon Falls?” We had just hit Squamish at the time(about half way home)…Awesome.

So we parked in the Provincial Parking Lot and made our way into the park and picked a lovely spot beside a creek in full view of the falls.

This batt was wonderful to spin. Alpaca, silk, silk noil, dyed wensleydale locks, natural romney locks and a bit of angelina made for a lovely skein. I spun for an hour while Pearl worked on her new raglan sweater. The sound of the falls created a lovely soundtrack, the falls themselves an even better backdrop. Satisfied that we had accomplished all of our goals of the trip, we headed back for the car, wheel and supplies in tow.

Today, I have to buckle down and finish the film hats. I got the final go ahead for the remaining two and I’m excited to have these things made by my hands on the big screen.

Well that’s a wrap.
