We finished making our first triangle loom today. It's been quite a process, and much harder than we thought. Between the wrong math angles for cutting, which needed to be redone by a professional, and the mess with the staining, and the sanding which removed most of the waterproof coating, and the glue that got all over the deck and took off more coating, and the measuring, and the measuring, and the measuring, well......I didn't think we'd ever get to the nail stage. But yesterday and today we nailed in three boxes of headless nails, and now all we need to do is screw in eye hooks to hang the loom on the wall so we can use it. Oh yes, and we have to learn how to use it too!! Well, we're off to Lisa Westra's at Feederbrook Farm tomorrow with the alpacas, so we can ask for an up-close and personal demonstration of the loom from her.....we hope!
Susan picked up thirty tomato cages that went around thirty of the forty four tomato plants. Danielle also staked up the pole beans. She brought in a handful of just picked string beans. Delicious. We should have a great crop by the time the annual Kinesiology Conference is over. Keep in touch.
