Awsome Day

    Okay so today started out not so Awsome for Charlie and Wendy.  First Charlie got gelded.  Then on the way home I called to tell Walnut Creek all went well and I was told that Wendy didn't take with Magic and will have to be rebred.  Now, it will be a bit tricky because Hope needs to be here two months before she gives birth so that things don't get complicated but Wendy will need to stay there until we make sure she is bred.  As they say timing is everything and all we can do is pray.  Well, that wasn't the awsome part at all but you have to take the good with the bad right and since we got the bad news out of the way here is the awsome part
    First, Libby is going to have a baby.  She has a bag and she is very loose in the who-ha area.  That means that is it just a matter of time before Cherokee gets here.  See these are sure signs we didn't mistake her for fat and not bred ...

Then I got notified that I won a new rope. You see, I entered a photo of me roping in a contest with NRS world on facebook to win a new rope and guess what? I won! Isn't that cool? In between all of that I worked on stuff for Kellyville. Check out what I made for Mom....

You can't see it very well but it is a hook for her spinning wheel.  After that I brought in an expert to do a blind strength test on commercial aplaca... Check this out ...

In the end 100% of the alpaca swatch was in tack and just a little stretched out ... That is one tough fiber if you ask me
