I am back home and at work getting ready for the Boston Handmade Marketplace- and keeping my fingers crossed that it doesn’t rain on Saturday.<\/p>\n

My trip report in several parts-<\/p>\n

We drove down to Allentown, PA for a family event. I convinced my husband that adding a few more miles (hours) to the trip and 20 pounds of wool stuffing into the car would be a wonderful side trip…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So, actually, the first stop was the West Earl Woolen Mill in Ephrata, PA. This lovely woman told us that since last fall, the wool is Australian. It is “processed” (I think that means cleaned?) there and shipped to her for carding. At least I think that is what she was saying.<\/p>\n

In Allentown I was very excited to see this green roof at a nature reserve we visited. It is beautiful!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Next, we drove up the Susquehanna River toward Ithaca, NY.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Along the way, I saw this- a bait vending machine. New to me!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In Ithaca, we relaxed, saw our daughter, walked along some waterfalls (here<\/a> are photos from last year), and we ate at the Moosewood Restaurant.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I will post about rest of the trip tomorrow.<\/p>\n

On other topics- I’ve been thrilled by some recent amazing internet community love- I discovered that I’d been mentioned in Small Magazine<\/a>, but only when someone left me a comment and mentioned it! Isn’t this collage<\/a> fantastic? I had a wonderful meet-up with Jan<\/a> of Be*mused- I’ll write about that tomorrow. And, Claire’s note<\/a> at the bottom of this post has me purring like a kitten. She was the first craft blogger that I found and she inspired me start my own blog… which opened up this whole amazing world to me!<\/p>\n
