Whoa, Snow!

Winter is causing an UNREAL amount of trouble. I know we're not alone in this, as this week's back-to-back storms have affected so many. We are simply running out of places to put snow.

The sheep are faring well, but they are yarded up and not venturing out into the paddocks. We were in the single frigits this morning, but temperatures here are expected to reach the low 30's today, hopefully enough to break up the crusty snow and give the flock more room to stretch their legs.

I'm ordinarily a winter fan, but this year is trying our patience. I'm grateful to note the lengthening daylight hours and counting the days to spring. How are you holding up?

BTW – If anyone is need of cozy, woolen-spun, farm yarn for mittens and socks – at a great price – check out this week's new listings at  Foxfire Fiber's Etsy Winter Tag Sale (featuring Wool Alpaca Twist).
