One of the joys of summer is visiting fairs and festivals. We love the Massachusetts Sheep and Woolcraft Fair in Cummington, MA. Sheep, alpacas,and llamas are on display and it is a hands-on, family friendly event. There are competitions, workshops, food booths and so much to see...especially the very sociable sheep.

The fiber artists have dazzling displays of goods for sale and one can purchase every manner of tool required for spinning or knitting.

Weekend memories...so good! As always,


enjoy the day!

Spring at last....

It's miracle what a week of rain can do! Suddenly, everything is green and lush.

That pretty pink house is Roseland Cottage. The color is pretty in any season.

We happened to be in the neighborhood where we saw the miniature donkey and horse. They weren't around but some very mellow sheep were roaming in the same area.

Very busy day ahead today. Mondays are always hectic after relaxing weekends. I hope that you have a happy Monday...and enjoy the day!
