Wonderful and VERY WET day at the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival yesterday. So very wet! Came home with one Romney fleece and enough Cotswald and silk roving to make a sweater.

I love this festival - it's such of mix of people, but honestly I was surprised to see nuns! Also lots of men in kilts (accompanied by a discouraging number of long, yellowish gray beards braided with beads on the end).

Looking down the main drag of the fair grounds. The sky is dark, it's raining, and most people are in raincoats and umbrellas.
Three covered sheep in a pen. The one in front is brown faced, the two in back are white sheep. Straw covered the ground and there is a blue plastic pail with water in it.
Four sheep eating hay from a black container in a pen. Straw covers the ground. Three of the sheep are black sheep, and one is brown.
