I guess its normal for people in cold climates to have lambs later in the year, but June seems pretty late for me. This is Hillside Sidney with ram and ewe lambs born a couple of days ago. I got Sidney along with 5 other sheep in February and there had been a ram escape at the previous owner’s farm.

Here is one of the things on the list for today. I have lots of buttons waiting to be drilled and sanded. I like to do a lot at once because it’s kind of a dirty job–horn dust in the hair and all over. I want to have a new batch of buttons for the Spinners Day on the Farm in Healdsburg tomorrow.

Robin, What different lives we have lived! But how wonderful they have been for each of us. Your lambs are adorable. Hope I can see them in person (lambson) some day. We used to see each other often in our younger days thanks to our parents. Now we observe each others families through emails and blogs. Both your children and mine have turned out wonderful. Guess we can pat ourselves on the back and thank our upbringing.
