and we’re at about halfway towards building the yurt. Jeffrey has been cutting poles for the walls, mostly maple and hazelwood. We are going to take a walk around and look for poles for the roof this weekend. Meanwhile, I am fluffing wool, to get enough to start my first large felted piece. I’m shooting for next weekend. I worked on it all last weekend, spending a bit of the time tearing apart a grey fleece that was already trying to felt. So, I guess the stuff really WILL felt!
As for the garden, I finished planting it last weekend. The first potatoes are up and looking good. The volunteer potatoes are starting to flower. I have cabbage and collards starting to come up. We had a little rain today, which should help too. I’ll be glad when I can really see things come up. It is a lot of work to go out and water the plants every morning. Still, it’s nice to finally have a garden at long last. Everything seems to be coming right along.
