Pendleton Woolen Mills

Fun day today.
Went into town to shop and tour Pendleton Woolen Mills.
Great place and yes we spent some of our retirement money!





















This is one of the many machines that "card" the raw wool.





































Some of the bobbins
























And some of the blankets, still on the roll.

And the machine that sews them together to send off for finishing at another location.
Apparently there is less loss if in a big roll than as individual blankets.
After we went thrift shopping, gun shop and out to eat.
The Prodigal Son brew pub. 
Good food and really good beer.






























































After we went back to the campground and hung out at the site.
Was a tiring day and we needed to recharge.
Now Elska is getting better and Lefty has the "tummy" troubles.
Hope he recovers fast since he is young.


Hugs
Tom and Millie
