Living on the Edge

….of civilization
Creates unusual opportunities for adventure

Above our home the land is free range. Usually the animals stay well away from the houses, but we have had encounters with sheep and cattle. Now the cattle aren’t too bad, there usually isn’t too many to deal with, and they are easily walked back up the hill. However this week there were about 300 sheep that grazed their way to our property line. Three hundred sheep would make very short work of my garden and yard. So I sent the kids up the hill to move the sheep along.

Of course, as the girls walk towards them, they just turned and walked away, no big deal, all in a days work at the homestead.
