DEAR SUN SPOTS: Many years ago, my husband built a stone replica of a Scottish cottage with a thatched roof. Through the years the roof has deteriorated and has had to be replaced. I replaced it myself some years ago.

We have come to that point again. I need two bales of long straw and would appreciate hearing from you or a reader if this would be available. — Gloria Poulin, Livermore
