We have sold 3 lambs - Dorse, Saphire & Blackspot - to a petting farm because they were th tamest sheep we had... hoping to find happy home for the other 9 in short order. But until then we have life events coming up for them... will be sheared and hooves trimmed for winter this coming friday. They will look entirely different next week. We have cattle back - 11 cows here for the winter and calving in the spring.
We ae getting rain and lots of it - but late and not in time to save our second cutting hay crop. Everyone with cattle is worried about having enough hay to get throught eh winter - need 6 very large bales per head. We cut for second cutting and got 18 bales - half of the 40 last year which was half of a good year when we got 80 bales. people will be hurting for hay....
Planning to ride new bike to California to have a comfort seat built. Have has 3 other seats built by Russell over the years. planning to leave aout oct 10 and getting the work done on 10.19. How the snow does not start in the high country before 10.25 so I can get home.
