Another tree

Lost another perfectly good tree, tall big pine.just fell over from all the rain.You can see the pine needles are not wasted.Sheep and goats will eat them and most other leaves, occasionally goats will eat the bark and roots that are above ground.We lost several big old oak trees last year, I don't like loosing them, takes a life time to grow them that big.Another cold and rainy day, got everybody fed quickly,will spend the rest of the day spinning yarn. Finally spun some Cotswold-Blueface wool that I dyed and blended with mohair, and carded into cloud, a rust blended with many colors.I'm getting so far behind on washing and carding, what can you do in this kind of weather when you work outside?Stay in and spin,knit,weave.
