Ice...ack !!!

A superior wether could die out here !! There is ice everywhere...it snows a ton, then it melts and freezes, and then....
And then you have to be careful that Benny doesn't run over you on his way to the feeder...I haven't noticed that you have missed any meals...

But this is weather that we usually see when we can smell spring, and I don't think spring is very close....

Did the Crone move out and leave the Big Guy alone with us ?? I haven't seen her in weeks !! I didn't see a truck...did they ship her ?? She is getting on in years....

Benny....she came out and changed the bedding just a week or so ago.....the Big Guy comes out to feed and check water while she is washing fleece and dyeing wool, and beading yarn, and...we see a lot more of her in the spring.

Well, I suppose that if they have left Amy and Sophie to retire and grow fleece here, they probably will keep the Crone...but she doesn't grow much fleece ???

They keep her pretty closely shorn...maybe she gets lice....

Ack ! Is that contagious ??? My wonderful fleece, lice ridden, then probably mites, then mange, then....

No Dummy...people lice are only on people and sheep lice on sheep....looks like shearing her regularly is working...you don't see her scratching on posts, do you ??

I don't see her at all ! and that's how this started, Becca....


The dogs say she is here and fine....Sadie wouldn't lie to us..

That is true...Sadie loves us and we actually see her !


Benny here, waiting for spring...or more food
