East to West In Search of Socks
In August 2009 we traveled to Portland Oregon to participate in the Sock Summit 2009.
This is the story of part of this trip.
Enjoy!

I would have loved to go on this trip. Neil, your choice of music and your stories made me feel a part of this exciting gathering of knitters. THANKS SO MUCH, N.
1I went to get my knitting so I could knit and listen at the same time. I also love the Stand By Me video. Will show it to my music students this year. It reminds me that there is more than one right way to sing a song or knit a sock!
2You were a high-spirited group!
3Fantastic job of recording your trip. I can really sense the fun, excitement and enthusiasm you all have for the journey and I can’t believe I am listening to this in Australia and giggling away at your adventures along the way to the sock summit. Looking forward to hearing the rest.
4Wow, makes me feel like I was there!. Oh, that’s right, I was. And there’s mooooooore to come.
5Great fun to listen to! I’m looking forward to the “rest of the story.”
6Were your spirits high on the return?
This just made me giggle… Perfect music. Great job Neil! Looking forward to the rest of the trip. That version of ‘Stand By Me’ is the very first YouTube video I made a ‘favorite’. Knocked my socks off (uh…, oh yeah, that pun was intended!).
7can’t wait to hear the rest!
8Loved it!
