Let your windows open and put some beloved houseplants in the window sill, and let those sheep graze their hearts out. You can shear them and let them provide you with lots and lots of wool to spin and weave!<BR/><BR/>I still have a large heavy bag of "crap wool" alpaca wool in the barn, still waiting to be washed, spun, etc.. whatever needs to be done to the wool to make it knit-worthy. Any suggestions?<BR/><BR/>Please tell me when those inventive Californianians invent a goat that will eat its way thru piles of old papers, cause I certainly have my share of that sitting around. <BR/><BR/>By the way, we are about 1 hour out of Baltimore, and many people bought up rural land in our area, built a house, fenced in the rest of it, and bought animals to "wander around and look pastoral". When it comes time to actually look after the animals they have NO CLUE. Hence the local papers are full of jobs for local stable hands, for an assortment of horses, cows, goats, sheep, alpacas, lamas, AND buffalo, believe it or not. Eveny once in awhile there is a large assortment of "free" animals listed in the paper, from those who bought Baby peeps (chickens) or bunnies, or lambs who thought they would be a nice gift for the Easter holidays. <BR/><BR/>AnnalisaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-32430973746549748112009-03-15T10:53:00.000-07:002009-03-15T10:53:00.000-07:00In my case, I wouldn't let myself believe the "bus...In my case, I wouldn't let myself believe the "bushes" were sheep, because I was savoring the surprise I would experience when the "bushes" grew legs, started bleating and walking around.<BR/><BR/>Robb totally called me on this one.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03932975112078606231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-41372515587776037672009-03-15T10:30:00.000-07:002009-03-15T10:30:00.000-07:00I heard Old Blue chuckling this morning.

When we were first married and on one of our 'galavants', I commented on the lovely symmetry of the two-toned rocks on the grassy hill in the distance. "What sort of boulders are those" I asked my geologically-interested husband. Big smile. Chuckle. "I believe they are of the 'bovine' variety, dear". It was obvious I was due for a visit to the optometrist. . .<BR/>~~Doublesaj~~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-52155760796130396482009-03-15T07:30:00.000-07:002009-03-15T07:30:00.000-07:00How brilliant!

Tulare ...I live very near Tulare Hill in San Jose. Tulare Hill is a habitat for the endangered bay checkerspotted butterfly. However, the butterfly has not been seen in a few years on the hill. It is believed that the non-native plants are crowding out the native plants that the butterflies normally thrive on. To solve the problem, cows were brought in who only eat the non-native plants and leave the native plants alone. It's pretty cool having cows in our backyard. <BR/>SJ Honey BunnyChristiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01158086541739474628noreply@blogger.com
