Luckily the rest of the crew are looking pretty good. A couple of foot issues but I am learning that there will most likely always be something. We still have one of the littlest ones and he is fat and sassy! I give him a pep talk with every feeding that he WILL be staying with us and there is NO other option but for him to live....So far he is listening.
I get an amazing pleasure out of seeing them in the morning and especially watching them in the pasture. We only let them out to graze for short periods of time to get them and their bellies (they each have two) used to the grass as they would literally eat themselves sick. Once they are a little bigger and are used to the pasture we will be able to leave them out to graze freely.
Matt is a great shepherd, watching over his flock and herding them in! He has started calling me Bo Peep. I need a name for him, any suggestions?
Other news on the Grove is the lilies are blooming and the veggies are growing! We have eaten lettuce, spinach and peas so far. Tomatoes are doing great and so are the peppers, onions, squash, pumpkins, beans and melons! OH, and we have apples on two trees!
Sunday we hit The Chocolate Ox for ice cream-yes before lunch but AFTER breakfast-then back to the boat until Mik, Zane and I had to finally head home late in the afternoon. We had such a great weekend and wished Matt could have been there to share it.
