It looks good in the snow -- why don't we have any?

We only have two trees this year; some years we have had more.
Just a few more bags left from a couple years ago.
Winter is a good time to move some more of these fleeces off to the spinners.
They are such good boys; but they need it to get colder, too.
Happy 14th Birthday 12/24/15.
We need new pictures of Ollie and Pandora and Robin and Bambi.
How beautiful and it hangs in the kitchen where I can see it.
Portuguese Ice Dog?.
Black dog running through the woods around here is not safe.
Primitive sheep like Icelandics will shed their fleece in the spring if you don't arrange for shearing soon enough. You can peel the fleece off in pieces. By the time the ewes start to shed like this one, the rams are almost finished. Rams love to have their fleece rooed.
We will have more to say on Icelandic sheep. Also more to say on Portuguese Water Dogs. And pony heads. Maybe chickens. Certainly Argo. And now that the rams are back home, I am sure they will have comments as well.
We need some new pictures here.
These are morels from spring. Right now there are probably oysters out there. Yum.
Then there is Bunny, her loyal apprentice. And Julio, who guards the rams.
Hottest Christmas on record. Swell. And wettest. C'mon 2016.
