Things I Saw Today


One of my motorcycle buddies, Rachael, has a knack for finding weird stuff on the road. She's the muse who led me to The Flying Pig.

Rachael just said on her blog there's a yarn-bombed tree on Long Island. The tree, covered with brightly-colored crocheted yarn, is at a local museum in Stony Brook. (I visited that museum last year and saw a fascinating exhibition about 18th century slavery in New York State.) By coincidence, the yarn artist has the same last name as me.

I rode out and visited the site today. Here are some pics...

  3. What fun! I wonder how they get that on the tree so well. Could you see where it was tied on?
