  11. Beautiful! I remember my uncle painting the sheep in the field to mark them for certain reasons. I think the ram was always marked. Have a great weekend with Shari. Hugs-Diana

  15. I think life could be worse than being a sheep in Ireland. I'd much prefer that over dryer climates.

  24. They are handsome sheep! I’m struck by the “Oregon-ish” look of your background ...in this and the later post...beautiful, green, and misty! Can’t help but think I’d feel right at home (and wish I could prove it)!
