Do you have a passion for making things entirely by hand or appreciate it in other people? In my teens and twenties, I got a thrill out of being my own mechanic on my old '75 Mustang. Yep, I've changed a few water pumps and brake pads. I have sewn every stitch of handmade rag dolls with a needle and thread (no machine stitching), and I prefer to cook from scratch. Isn't it much more rewarding to gather family and friends to put in fence posts, and raise barns? So naturally for me, prepping the fleece, learning to spin, and then making things from the alpacas' luscious fiber is my idea of happiness! -Kaylen

Fishing with Daddy

Circa 1968

Since Dad checks out my blog every morning, I'd like to take a moment to wish him a Happy Father's Day!

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of that which is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.
