A raffle is held at the monthly Guild meeting in SLO (4 tickets for $1).

Getting ready to go to my first Conference of Northern California Handweavers (CNCH), I am taking a Spinning Workshop.
The Man helped me prep the Lendrum by putting on a new Drive Band and Footman Connectors (requires a Robertson #1 Screwdriver and his handiness).

Into the Whirled March 2025 Club colorway, "Reckless Disco", Exmoor Horn.

I have been trying to get a group pic of the Band-tailed pigeons. They are so skittish especially when they are on the ground. I finally managed (on two different days) to get a few pics looking down at them from the upstairs window.
