40 Days!

Until Nap comes home!

I still see him like this though.

Meet Doc!

OK, here's a proper (sort of) introduction for Doc!

Doc is one of those good ole boys, you ask and he will do whatever you need done. He is also one of those that needs only be told "once".

"Once" I told him it was fine to lay on the bed, just once. Now, when you can't find him you need to check the bed. According to Doc, it could get up and leave so he was just "holding it" till someone else relieved him!

Doc came from a friend in Alabama. He's fit in here like a pair of worn in leather gloves. Seriously, even Bree adores him! He's one of only a few dogs that can get in "her" van and she doesn't go ape shit over it. He's a nice quiet unassuming fellow. Just don't forget to give him lots of room on the bed!

The Ram



One of the new sheep here. He's a 2 yo St Croix ram. The folks I got him from basically kept him as a pet. Yes, a "pet". He's quite friendly and easy enough to get along with.

How do others do it?

I mean how does one keep up with a blog?? I don't have the time or if I do I hate my slow dial up!! So, here is an update for those friends of mine calling me "mean" for not keeping them up to date!

 


Meet Dixie. She's the new resident LGD. I think I really got lucky with her. She's a doll and she hangs with the flock all the time. She can't stand it when I work dogs so I have to put her up in her place. If left in the barn she figures a way out!

Just a few nice shots of Bree working. It's hard to take pictures when handling a dog!

Yes, this shot is from March 1, 2009. I can't explain it, no one can. Why is it the year I move "north" they get a freak snow storm???? Not once but twice now this white stuff has fallen from the sky on me here!.

The dogs are having a blast in it. I had to pour water on the gate clips in order to get out of the yard, new latches come in Friday.

The fence people actually showed up at 7:15 this morning. I could not believe they were going to pull wire in this mess, brrrr. I guess they took me serious when I said it.must.be.done.by.friday. Sheep arrive Friday and I still have lots to do, nothing will get done in this mess though. So we have just been hanging out and wandering outside periodically.

The new dog in the picture is "Doc". I will get some proper shots of him once it's safe to venture out and about!
