[Blogging]

Nineteen years ago today was a snow day.  I know that because I was out taking pictures of the sheep for my very first blog post.  The two pictures I shared that day remain two of my very favorite pictures ever, but I've shared them many times over the anniversaries so this year I'm going to share another old favorite instead.  I believe I only have these beloved pictures because I started blogging...nineteen years ago.


So many old friends in this picture from February, 2015.  I wish Hank was mixed in there too, but I'm thinking that might be what Elizabeth, in the front, is looking at.  Don't miss Comby sitting on the fence.  It's all part of the puzzle.


Praying

 

It doesn't have to be 

the blue iris, it could be

weeds in a vacant lot, or a few

small stones; just

pay attention, then patch


a few words together and don't try to make it elaborate, this isn't

a contest but the doorway


into thanks, and a silence in which

another voice may speak.


Mary Oliver


Thank you for still being here and being my other voices.

Congratulations on 19 years. I've only found my way to your blog within the last year, but I enjoy it very much, so I'm glad you kept it up.

I think I’ve been with you almost since the beginning. First one I read was you playing in church with a lamb on your lap. I always check in every day!

Hello my friend! I started in February 18 years ago and it did not take long to find you. Have loved following you, Saint Tim and all of your animals. So grateful to have connected and wish we could spend more time together....by the fire.

19 sheepish years! I have come to enjoy learning about sheep and their personalities; glad I found your blog all those years ago.
