The hiatus might be therapeutic for the need to post on A2K?

We had severl "Charlies" many years ago. Strong headed, wicked tempred and kept lening on the fences and snapping them. BU AUTRALIAN SHEEP CHARGER FENCES, they will stun a bear like it was tazed.

Good luck. Have a lot of stone wprk to do? Thts always a bitch.
may your pastures be sweetgrassed and free of thistle.

Hint: grazing some sheep nd cattle together in severl rotating pastures od relly good for the grass.
If you want to start witth dome sheep, I d suggest DORPER (a dorset/Prsian cross)> They are hair sheep with excellent flavored lamb

Good luck and dont forget your buds.

Have a great time, Lordy.

Tell us all 'bout it when you get back.
