Day 3 - More stash expansion!

[calzephyr]

It turns out the rural area my husband's family is from was once known for their textile production. Whaaaaat? The Mississippi Valley had all the right components for success--a ready labour force, water to run the mills, men with big pockets to build the mills, and, most importantly, lots of sheep!

We missed the feature exhibit, but was still entranced by the permanent exhibit which had one of each major machine used from shearing to shipping.

We arrived back at the hotel before the local yarn shop closed, so hehehe I went in again and bought more yarn :-D

The place looks great from the outside, that it just has to be better inside!
