365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

Nothing Cuter Than Piggies
Day 343: What is it about little piggies that makes them so endearing? I don't know, but I am one of the thousands of people who think piglets are an essential part of any county or state fair. Yep, it's time to "do the Puyallup" again, and because I'm working in the Park booth, I get in early and can get up close to the pig pens before the mobs arrive. Piggy popularity has been so high that Fair officials have installed a closed-circuit TV to provide viewing for people who lack the sharp elbows and steel-toed boots otherwise necessary to get a position at the fence, and more squealing and grunting comes from the crush of visitors than from the pigs themselves.
