On today's American Cafe we're going to visit my home state - West Virginia.
Exactly!In fact, Yang Chen, I recently went there on a visit.I went to an arts-and-crafts festival in a town called Rennick.And there, I met a woman named Jeannie.
Well, when I met Jeannie she was sitting at an old fashioned spinning wheel spinning wool.
Well, you're right.But Jeannie not only spins the wool, she is involved in an amazing process that begins with raising sheep and ends with a piece of art that you can wear.Jeannie from West Virginia.
My name is Jeannie and I'm from Rennick, WV.I grew up outside of Pittsburgh, but I've lived here for over 30 years now.
Yeah, you have a great memory.I grew up outside of Pittsburgh just like Jeannie.It is such a small world.Now, back to Jeannie.
And I had for years a farm with a little flock of Cotswold sheep.And so that's what I'm spinning today.Ah, It's kind of coarse wool compared to some but it's very easy spinning.
Oh, Cotswold sheep, oh, Yang Chen, that is simply a type of sheep.But that's not the important part.The important part is that the wool is very coarse and therefore it's easy to spin.
Right. Coarse is spelled C-O-A-R-S-E.
