Sheep

Three beautiful things from my past week:

1. Despite a worrying forecast, Saturday turned out to be a lovely day and we stayed out playing until suppertime, when a bunch of us trooped down the hill to the local Tex-Mex joint and then on to a bar for a nightcap. Apparently some of the others kept going until 2 a.m., but I was maxed out on crowds and retired home at 10.

2. Rudi and I went to the Maryland Sheep & Wool Festival on Sunday for the first time in several years and got to see herding demonstrations, sheep, and lots and lots of yarn. I’ll save the haul (Rudi is an enabler) to show you another day, but here are a pair of sheep who were happy to say hi.

3. Susan and I had lunch this afternoon. The coffeehouse at the cathedral had a tent up, which meant we could sit outside on a lovely afternoon without fear of her getting burned.

How about you? What’s been beautiful in your world lately?

The sheep are adorable. Looking forward to seeing your haul of yarn.
