Hello from Maybelle Farm on Sunday August 8th,2010.  We start another week of Fiber Fun Camp tomorrow and it goes all week.  I am so pleased at how successful the summer camp has been and can't wait for tomorrow.  I have actually been away from the farm this last week Wed. through Friday to go New Hampshire and Storyland with my daughter Darcy and grandchildren Rowan and Declan.  My son and grandson took care of the sheep, my husband took care of our dog and giving water to all the sheep.  The chickens were taken care of by several people and everyone and everything was fine while I was away.  I fret myself silly over my animals but that is just who I am.  We stayed at a lovely Comfort Inn and it was beautiful weather in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.  I know the children had lots of fun with the highlight being sitting with Monkey George and I took their picture. 
So I am now back at work and trying to get ready for the Fiber Fun Day.  I am going to Darcy's to copy the recipes for the things we make to serve that day.  I have to also put up the mystery fibers and I have such fun getting this ready.  Its a beautiful day today and I set up portable fencing yesterday afternoon for two groups of sheep to be in new pasture.  I am frantically needlefelting a giraffe that I have donated to our local Library's fund raising event.  Its called the Red Barn Affair and I have to have it done this week.......WHEW  I think I can, I think I can!  Well that is all for today and I will write again soon.  Good-bye from Maybelle MaMa.
