When you're busy! I can't believe it's the middle of October already. We sold some fleeces and bought some beautiful yarns at the Fall Fiber Festival in Orange Co. The festival was held at the home of James Madison, 'Montpelier' It's a beautiful restoration if you haven't had time to visit.
The chickens have slowed down on their egg laying with the shorter days and cooler (thank goodness!) weather. Leaves are already changing here. Time to set in the garlic and onions, lift the dahlias, begin the cool season crops (greens and coles), clean out the ponds and greenhouse and decorate for Halloween! Unfortunately we lost our pumpkin crop during the drought. I was really looking forward to the warty Knucklehead, glowing Lumina and eerie green Jarrahdale. Perhaps next year will be better.
I tried to find you at Fall Fiber Fest but only found your fleeces.
ReplyDeleteSorry to have missed you. I was there for the morning, running around and shopping for yarn mostly.
