Just the oddest things catch your eye while walking in the neighborhood.

That is when you look inside gates and along stairways leading up the mountain side.

Spinning

There is this rather large bump of roving that I purchased some lifetime ago. Might have been over eBay, I have no real idea, only that the label says that this handdyed Romney was $14US for 3#- and it weighs out at almost 1500gm).

And it spins to singles looking about like this –

I don’t mind the pink, it gives it nice highlights. but there is a lot more natural brown in the carded roving that I had imagined. I think I am going to stop and ply some to see how it appears.

Audio Books

The Three Fates by Nora Roberts on the cassette player in my studio, and another Stuart Woods’ Stone Barrington in the car’s CD player. Ever notice (both authors) how the characters and plots get recycled? It is more than tropes, it is huge story elements that sound the same (to include dialog). Ah well, one is good spinning background and I certainly am not going to worry if I miss a track or five of Barrington’s behavior.
