I love visiting places like this. You got a great shot with your 'wee' camera! V

Very interesting subject. The tones of the woods really make this photo pop and the fireplace looks inviting.

I would have expected it to be wool. Nice scene.

What a lovely scene! ;) V I took 1 spinning lesson to learn how to spin angora rabbit fur ~ that was my extent of my spinning career.....

A great insight to see things in the way that they used to be done in days gone by, Laine.V

Always nice to see the local history preserved. Cotton played a very important part of our history here in Texas too. Our local museum has "hands-on" spinning for children who are interested in the process. :)
