Babies and moms are enjoying the sunny weather.

Lambing season ìs off to a great start! Twin rams started tge season yesterday evening and a healthy set of triplets was born this morning. All lambs were born out in the pasture. Both moms had the babies dried off and nursing by the time I saw them following their moms in the field. Love these hardy red sheep!

Windy and snowy this morning. Working in the maple woods helping Ben check ines and change out a few taps. Hoping for a few good runs next week when it thaws out a bit. Next week, I will be in Cleveland presenting and vending at the Rust Belt Fiber Symposium. Looking forward to hearing some awesome speakers and meeting people invested in making local fiber a larger part of the regional economy!

The flock unfiltered. 🙂 Hope everyone is staying warm these days. The flock is unfazed by the cold and have been playfully running laps around the lower field most evenings. Patrick had to show off, as usual.

A new batch of fiber arrived from Round Barn Fiber mill! Unboxing fiber is always exciting. Its the culmination of a year's worth of work. Shearing in March, watching them grow fiber over the fall and winter, and shearing the following March.... the cyclical nature of the shepherds year is captured in every skein of yarn and bag of roving. I'm looking forward to spinning a sample soon!

Working on a few welding projects for Ben's upcoming maple season. He made several upgrades and a few things needed tweaking to fit his existing setup. I don't do a lot of stainless steel TIG welding and really don't weld a lot of thin stuff, but I'm always down for a challenge.
