THE DAY BEFORE SHEARING!!!!






Been a busy day getting ready for shearing tomorrow. I am so glad I took today off so Kevin and I could go over to Clearview Farm and watch. We rearranged some things and I went into "town" to pick some more things up.

Buck and Spunk are happy that I am letting them out in the far pasture at night. It is pretty rich, so I have to limit them.

Doesnt' Miss Skippy look like a coyote? That is why she wears a neon blaze orange collar.

That is Casper-Batman grooming himself. His idea of grooming is to roll around on the gravel, not real effective, but he enjoys it. BTW, he is a hunting machine.

We have set up the shearing area inside the hay barn, I think it will work out really well.

There will be lots of pics tomorrow.


I am off to bed, apparently, we should have more helpers, but we don't, so it will be interesting. I guess I will need my rest!

  2. Fern,

    Show the pics to Classy, I certainly wouldn't mind finding her here. I could tell Kevin that she just showed up out of no where!

    Actually, that pasture is part of what was the hay field as is the seven or so acres on past that. We are slowly working on fencing it all in. It is very lush this time of year, that is why I keep them off of it part of the time. They don't like it, but tough nuggies!
