I was wondering how all of you were faring in this excessive snow we've been having. Looks like just fine! Gorgeous photos! I love Rosie and Dream in their winter coats tapping around on top of the snow. The rams, too, are stunning in their winter coats. <BR/><BR/>Hey, I shovel snow for my fiber, too. Yesterday I started shoveling off the back deck (then I must confess Russ took over and finished--not because I couldn't--he spoils me...) Today, now that the deck is all dried off, we put up snow fence (Russ screwed it on the railings) per Joyce's instructions and I skirted Ambrose, the only huacaya alpaca fleece I had left to skirt and sort for length. It was downright pleasant all afternoon, but by 7 pm my fingers were numb and I finished that fleece in a BIG hurry! I got about three pounds of shorter fiber felting batts (1-2.5") from Ambrose and about 6 ounces of good fiber long enough to make into rovings (3"). <BR/><BR/>It was nice in Dallas last weekend--we painted house the whole weekend for our son and his finance and met her parents-they painted, too--we all get along great. I lost my cell phone at the airport on the way back, though--darn--that's why I haven't called. I have a lot of travel in the next 2 weeks for work, but will be in touch soon after that. <BR/><BR/>When in April are the LAMBS arriving? It's so exciting! You are so dedicated to make sure your ewes get their excercise! Good job!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22671526.post-1173195411592890942007-03-06T09:36:00.000-06:002007-03-06T09:36:00.000-06:00So great to hear news from Bluff Country!I'm glad ...So great to hear news from Bluff Country!<BR/><BR/>I'm glad to see pics of the girls and boys, and WOW, that pic of snowy trees in front of a hill!!!

There are more of us who shovel snow for their sheep. :) Oops...in trying to defend her friend, Nancy, Kathy has made a definite faux-pas by letting the cats out of their respective bags! For it seems that she, too, shovels snow for her sheep - even 4 ft. deep snow!<BR/>Way to go, Nancy! WoHoo!<BR/><BR/>And Rosie is so cute!Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16933105773412843275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22671526.post-1173141452622625192007-03-05T18:37:00.000-06:002007-03-05T18:37:00.000-06:00Nancy-I know you have too many sheep for this, but...Nancy-<BR/>I know you have too many sheep for this, but....I was so worried about my first pregnant ewe getting "enough" exercise, that I put her on the leash and walked her up and down our roadfront twice a day. <BR/><BR/>Shoveling paths for them? You've outdone me. I bow in the presence of greatness...(*grin*)melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12252897236597700469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22671526.post-1173134930642508972007-03-05T16:48:00.000-06:002007-03-05T16:48:00.000-06:00What a dedicated shepherd!

Naw, the fresh air and sunshine is better for ALL of you. :-)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.com
