We failed to take a single picture in which we didn't look like death, so you'll just have to trust me - we had a great time! Frederick is such an adorable town, with a great range of shops. Our perennial favorite is Muse, where each got a little handmade book from YeeHaw Industries to use a trip journal. We enjoyed fantastic sandwiches at Cafe Nola, where the waitress was knitting and was also going to the Festival!
At the festival, we got down to goat picking:
Mom & a sweet Pygora
and farmer meeting,
These lovely Rambouillets belonged to Wit's End farm and produced this:
And shopping!
from the American Cormo Sheep Association, which had the nicest, most helpful lady farmers working!
Merino from Cloverleaf Farms
Socks that Rock, from The Fold
It was a fun, exhausting day, but I ended up with just what I wanted and needed! You'll be seeing that Rambouillet roving, dyed this week, in the next few days.

Awww, Your Mama.
Hi Tara,
You didn't miss me at MS&WF, we don't have a booth there anymore. I really do miss it but the upside is we are busy enough at the farm shop and website that I don't have to pack stuff and carry anymore.
You have some really nice photos from Maryland and you don't look like death, rather like you are having a great time.
I love the explanations for your colors.
