2022 3\/26 to 4\/1 Traveling to Austin<\/h3>\n

Each trip we try a different plan to make departure smoother. This year, we pre-packed all our clothing and most of our food the day before we left. This simplified the last minute stuff at home and helped us remember the last few things the day before – so we had time to grab and pack more carefully.<\/p>\n

3\/26 Pioneer Fiber Mill<\/h4>\n

Our first day’s travel, 198 Miles, took us to New Smyrna Beach and a lovely Harvest Host. Steve Williams, operator of Pioneer Fiber Mill, accepts shipment of exotic alpaca<\/strong> wool from small growers to clean, hand dye, and spin into yarn that is returned to the grower for use by local hand crafters to make alpaca scarves, hats and similar crafts. Everything is done by hand in small batches.<\/p>\n
