I understand. When BJ died, I had hard decisions to make and sold my horses. I bawled over it. For you, not only grass, but you have a full plate. They’ve gone to a loving home and it takes a little off you.
On my second cup of coffee. Been busier than a three legged cat in a sandbox around here. Calming down a bit for now . Go bottle lambs moved out of the house into a pen outside. A week there, then put with all the lambs and ewes. I take their bottles to them.

Pouring and storming here. Waiting on daylight so I can go check sheep and dogs. My little temporary shelters are no match for a deluge like this.
Pouring rain here. Under flood watch. Ya think? Waiting on daylight so I can go check on sheep.
