I just listened to your podcast. I found you on I-tunes. I heard that Julianne is moving to Mt Vernon. I'm not sure how close to Columbus this is, but the Columbus area is a pretty cool town. Easy to get around.
This link will help for yarn stores.

Also if you go to the The Yarn Shop (A on the Map) you must stop at Penzyes Spice shop. It is the greatest spice shop in the US. I actually live in Cincinanti, but Whenever I'm in Columbus I stock up. I actually haven't been to this Yarn shop because I didn't realize that there was one so close to Penzeys.
Also, Close to Dayton is a number of yarn and fiber shops. There is a fiber show in Yellow Springs in September every year - Maybe less stressful than Rhinebecks
Don't worry - Ohio is easy
I was listening to your podcast and wanted to comment on the missing spring on the brake of your new Ashford.
The spring on the brake is best replaced with a hair elastic rather than a new spring. It's more sensitive, stretchier and totally better than the spring. I just swapped mine out.
I've been listening to your podcast while I jog and the few times when I get a chance to be alone and I love it. I also wanted to say that I'm one of those working crafty moms who also tries to catch a bit of craft in between two little kids, a more-than-part-time job and a husband who needs me too. I just try to sneak in as much fiber as possible-usually once the kids are in bed and I have an hour or two to myself. Now my husband's the other problem-I mean not him just fitting him in between the fiber. ;) Somehow it works. Just wanted to say hi from Germany!! Good luck on the move!!
