Don't you just love when the state gets involved with anything?

More snow, although yesterday afternoon it came off sunny and just warm enough to melt the snow that fell in the morning. It's just snowing now, but Stan said when he went to spread that there was a windblown heavy snow and he drove through a white out up the back road.

I don't know what to say about 'plans' for the farm here. The young man who was going to buy all the cows is now going to be taking 10 and he won't be using the farm. Stan is planning to keep the rest until August (?!!?). We'll see how this goes, ahem.

Personally, I am getting ready for some workshops as teacher in fabric painting with transparent paints and, possibly, with natural dyes. The natural dyes will come up only if I figure it out. Maybe some paper making with natural stuff like iris leaves and cat tail heads, but that is yet to be scheduled.

The sun is shining through the snow - if it were rain we'd have a rainbow. I'll take it as a hopeful sign.
