Cummington

So, last weekend was our trip to Thom's family, with a day at the MA Sheep and Wool festival, a.k.a. "Cummington". We left Friday afternoon around 4:00pm. Traffic was pretty bad ...

(This was taken with Thom's patented "hold the camera out the car window and shoot" technique.) What is normally a 2 hour trip took 3 hours. We finally got to Springfield a few minutes after 7:00pm. We had a nice visit with his family. I won't go into details, since they will bore you ...

On Sunday, we went to Cummington with Thom's parents and 6 year old niece. As expected, we saw sheep ...


And llamas ...

(That's my mom-in-law. She really wanted to take the llama home with her.)

And goats ...


And even a yak ...


That pretty much covers the "sheep" part of the festival. "Wool" to come tomorrow...
