This year's Konza adventure was a little different from years past. I had time to go hike around midday and Jenny took the kids in the later afternoon. There were a lot of people out there taking advantage of the decent weather, which leads to seeing less wildlife. But I kept hearing little critters moving around in the dry grass near the paths.
I didn't go entirely alone, per se, I took along Princess Periwinkle Primrose Flora the Explorer.
What you can't see in the picture is that she's a backpack. Slash my purse. She loves purple and adventures.
She started out with pink straps about the perfect size for a small child to wear. So our adventures together began with a bit of "surgery" to install purple straps long enough for a large adult to wear. We like to walk around in public and listen to people react to her.
Of course, she was also naked and so very pink, naturally I had to crochet a dress for her. The best part is that when I walk around with Periwinkle, people who know me don't really react at all. They're just kind of like "this is completely normal Cheri behavior". It kind of emboldens me. It makes me wonder what else I can convince people is totally normal Cheri behavior.
