Our friend Jackie came over yesterday and brought Maria a Buddhist a/k/a Himalayan Singing Bowl for Christmas, we sat for a while Saturday night listening to the sounds, which were beautiful and calming.

Zinnia was impressed. Me too.

This morning we’re heading for Vermont to pick up a new batch of yard made from the wool of our sheep from the knitting mill.

Maria will put some up for sale in a day or so. This is one of our favorite Bedlam Farm rituals. It’s only an hour or so away, we’ll be back just after lunch.
