As there are lambs running around on our back hill. Not our lambs, mind you, but lambs. I have informed Stuart that he has at least 5 ewes and 3 lambs on our hill, which generated a “grrr, but I fixed the hole in the fence!” As we have plenty of grass back there, we don’t mind. And it is very amusing to watch the alpaca chase the sheep around. Lambs are apparently even more fascinating than adult sheep to Hyouki, our little fawn sheep-worrier.

Our neighbors Bruce and Jenny have come back from Europe, so hopefully the Rhodo’s they pruned back in May will start getting shifted over to their place. August is a good month for transplanting trees, before teh spring-sap starts flowing. Clearing out the garden will be good. Rhodo’s are deadly poison to alpaca, so it’s better not to have them around. And once a spot is clear, I am probably going to build a greenhouse. That should be a fun project!
