Hello 2011!

I'm emerging from a couple weeks out of commission. I hurt my back Dec 23. Recovery hasn't been so fast as when I hurt it in September. Both incidents involved sheep and lifting. You'd think a girl would learn to be more careful, wouldn't you?

We had a couple inches of snow overnight Jan 7/8. The sheep and Fiona were out and about in it Saturday morning. I grabbed the camera and headed to the pasture.

Young rams Newman and Mick:

Old ram Blue:

Sprightly Klickitat:

The ewes and Fiona:

The ewes are plumping up. Leah looks like triplets are in store.

Speaking of lambs: Open Barn is scheduled already - Saturday, April 16.

Contact me for directions if you need them.

I'm expecting about 20 lambies this spring.
