It’s a Sign
The last few posts on this blog have been about how three pieces of machinery have failed us. Previous blog entries have talked about the male sheep on our farm, and how they’ve caused trouble a few times by breeding our ewes when they felt like it, not when we wanted them to.
Melissa found the following sign online. On our farm it refers to male sheep, but I’m guessing others might have their own interpretation to the sign.
After twenty-five years on the farm, I’m adjusting to the adventures of city life. Part of that adjustment is figuring out what I want to write about now, since sheep are no longer part of my daily life. I’m challenging myself creatively by painting with pastels and playing the ukelele as I seek my new writing path.
