Finally got into town last Friday, mostly to get tires changed over. Winter tires are mandatory until May 1, the only appointment I could get was on the 15th,  good now until the 1st of October when the switch starts again. Saw 11 deer, lots of horses, 1 black bear,  all but the bear on the way home. Stopped at Walmart on the way into town and its a good thing I did, bought 75% of my list while there, figuring I'd get the rest at SaveOn when done with tire place. NOT.

Finished spinning the second bobbin of the pinky-magenta, now in the plying queue.  Next will be more leftovers, have some of the pinky-magenta, red, and orange (its the most), all are merino-nylon blends. Thought I might start with the orange, then pink, orange and the red, continuing with this mix.
