Sunset Shawl and a Walk in the Woods

 Well, I'm weaving on and off. I love this warp and

 I'm weaving the first shawl with a coral tencel

on my new-to-me Schacht loom.  Simply a lovely piece of equipment.

 This was before the snow storm.

You could almost feel that the weather was turning into Spring.  

Today, not so much.

Our field...

 Heading into the woods we found a tree across

my riding path.  

 More riding paths in the woods.

Our pond.

 Looking back up at the house and barn from the pond.

There is an almost-complete road down through

the swamp in between us but still needs work.

And certainly isn't horse ready.

And today...Well, we stayed in where it is warm and toasty.

The wood stove is lovely.

I'm weaving.

And that paint horse I was going to see was sold

to the woman who saw him

the day before we were

 supposed to go. 

 But that's ok.

Karen from This Old House 2 has a friend in RI who

is selling a gelding.  And I found a quarterhorse

rescue in Bolton, MA.  So we are off on Easter

Weekend to see them.  I'm trying not

to get excited.  OK I'm a little excited.

We'll see.  I'm going to let

instinct guide me.

No matter what horse I get, it takes time to build a

relationship.  Time to trust.  Time to understand

each other.  Time to adjust.  Time to love.
