It’s 7.23 now, Liz, our shearer, is due to arrive at 8 a.m. We got up around 6 a.m, fed the dogs and cats.  We fed the sheep on the ground today to keep them from getting hay in their coats. We raked out the barn. We’ll separate the donkeys by putting them in one of the pastures – they try to protect the sheep if they can.

We’ll have a light breakfast and then go and get the sheep into the Pole Barn so everything is ready for Liz. Maria gave Suzie her morning scratch.
