My friend Phyllis called this morning to report another set of lambs born; our ram lambs got in with the ewes last summer when we had flooding. Hopefully the rest of the ewes won't decide to lamb in the next couple weeks! It's in the high 70F here today; dry and hot - I can hardly imagine what it must be like in July! But for now, it's fabulous! Phyllis also chatted with me about a herding trial we are co-hosting during the annual rodeo in Glenwood City; it'll be the weekend of Father's Day, likely a one-day event, using my sheep ~ should be fun!

Seth will be blowing in this afternoon for a few days of sun and shine before heading back up north; he was delivering one of his barrel saunas to a fellow in Los Alamos, NM who works at the Sandia Labs so a great excuse to come visit his old mama.

Una is back home from her spay surgery of yesterday; she seems sore and tired but overall I"m glad we made the choice. She's a wonderful friend and I hope we have many good years together.
