Where Have You Been All My Life?


Blogger forgot I even existed since I haven't posted in almost four years.   I am back again.   I don't really know why.   Things are about the same as they were four years ago.   I am just four years older and not enjoying that.   I still have my Shetland sheep.  There are a whole bunch of them right now since seventeen lambs were born this spring.  There is a total of 15 adult sheep,  13 ewes and two rams.

Inside there are still two cats and four dogs.  The dogs are the same ones I had back in 2015, but the one of the two cats is a new one.

We are still living on a decrepit farm up a dead-end road in southwestern Wisconsin.  We are trying to sell the farm in order to buy something else nearer to the town where we grew up.  Jake's children and two granddaughters live there.

My booth at the Sparta Farmers' Market in Sparta, Wisconsin.   It is a new venture that started last summer.   It won't be going on for too long in the future because we are moving.  The farm is sold, and we are purchasing a new place near Madison outside of Deerfield.   It is much smaller and more manageable plus it is two hours closer to Bridget's daughters and Jake's mother.  The sheep and a few cows will go with us because with 31 acres, we can manage to keep them.   Maybe now I can keep up the blog, but maybe not.

Life as it is..........

Life as it is ....is different.  Not so much for us here.   We are a pair of hermits married to each other.   The farm is different.   The sheep are here and probably pregnant.  Their lambs aren't due until Memorial Day because of the move.

Another move

 Now we live in Union Grove, Wisconsin in the south east corner of the state.  We are about 20 miles from our childhood homes.   It is good to be back where I know something about the countryside.  All of the sheep came with us and continue to do well.    Their situation is not perfect yet, but it is improving as time goes on.
