We’ve had a mighty snowy winter this year in Wisconsin. For years we’ve had mainly rainy/sleety winters. Lots of ice. Turned out we’ve gotten a little complacent about our plans to distribute the round bales of hay to the sheep? Sheesh. Time to re-vamp the plans before NEXT winter!
The drifts are so deep we cannot safely get the bales into the pasture without the tractor or skid loader getting stuck. NOT a good thing. Since we can’t get out there, the big group of sheep is dining alfresco- on the patio- aka driveway. I have a new sheep TV channel outside my windows and I love it. They are not used to this situation so are a bit unsure they are allowed to be over here. When I open the back door to let the dogs in/out, the sheep scamper back through the barn to the other side of the fence. All innocent like ‘see? we were here the entire time.” They are so funny! Come on Spring!
