Another action packed weekend
August 10, 2009
Am I the only person on this earth that has a weekend that is completely non-stop from Friday night through Monday morning? Wow, what a weekend we ran tons of fiber this weekend. No rest for us at the mill. My husband and his dad made major progress on the additional wash facilities. My mother and mother-in-law and me hammered out the roving and yarn this weekend.
We had a few passer bys that saw our road sign and stopped in to tour the mill. It was a great time for them because they were able to see the mill in total operation. It is best to call first but we enjoyed the visitors. We tried to concentrate on Alpaca this weekend and ran into some slight issues with staple length. Please remember when processing Alpaca fiber, the longer the better. What’s my saying? It’s all about staple length. Maybe I will have a t-shirt made or something.
Anyway, got to get back to work I have the Boone County Fair and still need to keep the mill running.
