This past week we visited Chunkanut Drive. I'm not sure if you've taken this stretch of 21 miles but I highly recommend it if you love nature. It's breathtaking. You weave through the old highway with views of Puget sound one side and huge boulders and trees on the other. If you start in Skagit Valley like we did you end up in Fairhaven which is a. The delightfully named hamlet b. Home of dos padres - best melon margarita in the world, and home of the most lip smakingly scrumptilicious homemade habanero jelly. It's also where we decided to wash the car.
All that nature on Chucks drive got me in a silly mood and while the car wash paused, changing cycles I decided it would be a great time to wind the window down and touch the washer twirlers, ya know those big yellow things? Well in the midst of my personal adventure the cycle changed and as I rolled up the window one of the tentacles from the twirlers caught in the window and amputated itself. Most people would have simply opened the window to released the tentacle to the wind... But not me.
Said item was the EXACT yellow of a Lance Armstrong live strong bracelet ... And I wanted to take a little gifty poo to my BFF Tadpole who, coincidentally we were meeting for wine soooo I retrieved it, tied a knot with love and gifted it to my bestie.
A few days later I revealed that origins of the bracelet to Tadpole, suffice to say I think he is not sporting a yellow carwash tentacle any longer BUT... Now I see that he would wear a friendship bracelet to display our mutual amor for one another. So sometime soon I will be crafting one for him. Stand by for photos.
Happy day one and all

I loved it and though I may not wear it a third time...I will keep it close to my heart! Or in my car! The funny thing is that on Thursday when I first got it, I didn't even realize it was just a tie band. Guess it was good you put it on in the dark! Haha! Love ya and thanks for the nice blog post!
