My brother turned 50 today and we had a celebration with my parents that included cake and ice cream and of course the birthday boys favorite-Marions Pizza (a local favorite).
Our little world at home on the urban prairie and along life's highway with Nolan & Lacy the Bichons Frises.

Super Fuzzy Angora Rabbits
Evan (L-French Angora) and Blackberry (R-Satin Angora), my two best woolers who are also both Grand Champions, have the fullest coats this winter that I have ever seen on them. They are just beautiful.

Work to Do
Prepping my next project-2 years worth of angora fiber to spin. Plan to coordinate colors and do separate batches mixed with this beautiful assortment of yak, camel down, alpaca, merino, shetland, tussock silk (that I purchased on Etsy), and baby Bichon from Nolan. The baby Bichon hair will be spun with the tussock silk because they are both stark white.

Saturday Morning Randomness
You don't have to go far for entertainment around here. Harry hooligan our resident red shouldered hawk made an appearance, Andrew found an american dagger moth cocoon in the magnolia and Lightening killed a rabbit (not domestic). That sure caused an uproar. LOL

Lake Freighters in Ohio
Whirlwind trip to the Huron River/Lake Erie to see the freighters Adam Cornelius and John Boland and the tug Champion docked at the Huron limestone docks in order to provide another adventure for the cousins on their gap year trip.

For the Love of Snow
This little boy loves the snow. This evening I made him wear his foul weather gear. It was really cold.
