I want to thank those of you who wrote urging me to sell my photos. It never would have occurred to me that anyone would want to buy them, and even if I don't sell any it was awfully ego-boosting to be asked.
It rained buckets today on the Island and the sheep, goats and dogs bore the brunt of it I'm afraid. There is nothing on this earth more pitiful than a soaking wet angora goat!
The upside is that all this rain is good for the pasture and will extend our grazing season. These beautiful sunflowers at Morning Glory Farm seemed appreciative as well. [Erin gets the photo credit on the sunflower pics and my mom took the wet goat photos!]
If you are planning to purchase MVFF yarn for any of your holiday knitting please place your order soon. We have a couple of magazine write-ups coming and I want to be sure our current customers get first crack at our supply.

Your pictures ARE gorgeous. I think it's great that you're selling them! (That one of Truman is particularly cute ... oh, heck, they're all cute.) And I'm lusting after the Avocado yarn--it's probably just as well I can't afford to come to the island for the next shearing--I'd be way too tempted!
And, thank you for taking time from your busy writing schedule to update the blog--you know we all appreciate that!
Now, I'm going to go meditate on the irony of the US postal system ... although, really, it's a good one.
Hi, just wanted to stop by and say hello, looks like I chose a good day. What a wonderful idea to sell your photographs. I think that wet angora sheep photo would be a good one to add to your list. It did make me chuckle. Your sunflowers are amazing. I must have a look at your shop. Have a wonderful week, looks like beautiful weather. Karen
question: do wet goats and sheep smell as "interesting" as wet dog?
we didn't have to worry about ours getting wet as ike swept by...note by, he went northeast of us but did drop a bunch on rain on us. oscar and mysy are storm scarred!

Thanks for yet another fun update. I love the photos! I live in San Francisco and we have a fabulous farmer's market, and now I'm more inspired to go every week!!
Thanks,
