The knitting on my Paulie cardigan is progressing nicely. I've had several quiet moments to knit this past week, so I feel like I'm getting somewhere with this fine yarn.
This week I picked up Anne of Green Gables, which I've been slowly reading through. I love every page of that book and don't want to hurry through it, so I've just been reading a chapter at a time when I think of it.
I'll admit I won't have the time to read through it, but I found a book called Early Pittsburgh Presbyterianism in the church library and I just had to borrow it. I realize it's an odd thing to say, but I think the subject of the book is actually interesting. What really made me borrow it though, is the map inside.
It's interesting to see names of streets we know and that they had the same names 200 years ago. It's also strange to see unfamiliar names for other places we know. Mike and I have decided to call places by their original names. The North Side is going back to Alleghenytown, and goodbye Mt. Washington, you are coal hill again. Wouldn't the South Side be more fun to go to if it were still called "Birmingham"? I think so, and I'm pretty sure Anne Shirley would agree.
Joining the Yarn Along with Ginny again today.
