Yarn
If you know me then you know how crazy I am about fiber...yarn, knitting etc.... I have a secret dream... that one day... I will have some land and raise Alpacas. Or maybe sheep. I would treat them like pets and sell their fiber . My land would be full of green, rolling hills and I would run over the hills while the wind blew my hair and the flower petals I had just picked...... oh ... sorry...
But I do love fiber... and I just started being interested in spinning fiber into yarn. The other day I finished my first little ball of yarn and I wanted to take a picture of it. I went to my friend Dianne's house because her house is full of wonderful treasures that I find amazing. After finding a few things that I liked I came up with these:

And came up with these:

This was at the petting zoo. We went last week and I just stuck my camera under him and hit the shutter. It is for the theme on JPG Magazine "shooting from the hip"
How crazy is this?
I was going through some old pictures and found a picture of my Dad when he was Griffin's age. I knew that Griffin looks like my Dad ...
I just didn't know how much they look alike.

Now how crazy is that?
Emerging Butterfly
This is a video I made of our last Monarch emerging from her chrysalis. I had my tripod set up most of the night and next morning to catch the right moment.
Enjoy!
