A few weeks ago, we yo-yo'd down to North Carolina.  For us that is a 14-16 hour drive, which gave us a lot of time to listen to music.  After exhausting my musical mixes on my iPod Touch, hubby took out his iPhone and put on Pandora.  Seeing as I am a huge music fan, this website is appealing to me because you can type in a band or a song that you like and it will make a music station for you out of songs that are like the criteria you enter in the beginning.  Just try it!

Anyway, I have become a Muse-head!  I first heard them on Guitar Hero 3, with their song "Knights of Cydonia."  I then had my ears grabbed by them again with their song "Supermassive Black Hole" on the Twilight soundtrack.  And, thanks to Pandora, I now have a pretty awesome Muse channel on my feed.  For more than a week now they are all I have listened to.

Now that you know what is in my ears, I'll give you the tour of the weekend.  I went to the NH Sheep & Wool Festival in Hopkinton, NH.  What a vast difference in weather from the MD Sheep & Wool the week before!  MD was in the 90's.  NH was in the 50's.  I have to say I prefer the hot weather!  We were not at the festival for very long as we were cold and the vendors did not seem to have a lot.  Don't know if they didn't bring a lot or if they were just that picked over.  I tend to doubt they were picked over, though, because Saturday was so rainy and miserable that I can't imagine the festival was that crazy busy on Saturday - but I digress. 

We did see lots of beautiful fiber animals, and it was great to spend time with my family.  Here's a couple pics for you.

This week will prove to be a busy one, as the Simple Pleasures Packages for May are on sale.  I increased the number available, so there are still some left.  Be sure to grab one, as there are only a couple days left to get one (last month many folks missed out).

Hope you all have a wonderful week!
