Stay and graze. We hope you enjoy your visit!thecrazysheepladyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10835269631172344336noreply@blogger.comBlogger3258125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8457557437300345355.post-4155859380065551512024-03-14T07:38:00.002-05:002024-03-14T07:38:57.649-05:00A Good Night<p style="text-align: justify;">My favorite time of day tends to be evening. I love stopping to watch the sheep and chickens head in for the night, all the birds looking for a spot to sleep and, unless you're a bat, the feeling of settling in for the night. The bats aren't here yet, but I doubt they are far away.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The day is done. A good day or not, there's comfort in knowing we've all made it through another one. I think that's part of the attraction of fall. Knowing I made it through another summer. It's time to settle in for the winter.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">While spring is not my favorite season, there are a few things I really do enjoy. Hearing the spring peepers in the Frog Pond might be my favorite.</p><p></p><center><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4eiEyUJabt/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="14" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255);

I figured Bea would be up for a paddle and she was. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">She hopped right in and took her point and the first time she slipped on the slick side I caught her. The second time I was trying to measure how deep the pond was and I didn't :-o. She splooshed in and under and back up and dog paddled right to me and I picked her up and put her back in the boat. It didn't seem to bother her, surprisingly, because she HATES baths. Poor Bea. Some grip strips are on the way!</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRwuKtBkUiboweFExKeudXzYvSVYndK01sBHDBCU-mSfvVXvr-GGRpcLOau_9KthFMblQ2hswGIXnH9LNrDnK1ZDmTY3kWP91ielOaErSFV5MJP593ljEjXU8S1yrIXzDv3OBhDbbKhrg2fV-9X9UsrqZPveqQcEhA3nl9Dnt3VM4O43WM7hbHooUMdB0/s1966/IMG_7573.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1966" data-original-width="1474" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRwuKtBkUiboweFExKeudXzYvSVYndK01sBHDBCU-mSfvVXvr-GGRpcLOau_9KthFMblQ2hswGIXnH9LNrDnK1ZDmTY3kWP91ielOaErSFV5MJP593ljEjXU8S1yrIXzDv3OBhDbbKhrg2fV-9X9UsrqZPveqQcEhA3nl9Dnt3VM4O43WM7hbHooUMdB0/w480-h640/IMG_7573.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKCLqvrdJ-J9gCqPq0NZheqX9GgbpHWZuxmMGyK_dE49p76BJuNsgX3tWfvDndWrW9FbiHez64CBrptW_GNCDgdQPjroqdKVqiQ5y-qqAw942UNaVhY-pjFDUQwt6D5s6YfR3VlxogHv-u19zNhAnLMHAOgdpuAVnJPaT6x1VYy6LPvW_Jn8JcpEIT6qE/s640/IMG_7603.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKCLqvrdJ-J9gCqPq0NZheqX9GgbpHWZuxmMGyK_dE49p76BJuNsgX3tWfvDndWrW9FbiHez64CBrptW_GNCDgdQPjroqdKVqiQ5y-qqAw942UNaVhY-pjFDUQwt6D5s6YfR3VlxogHv-u19zNhAnLMHAOgdpuAVnJPaT6x1VYy6LPvW_Jn8JcpEIT6qE/w480-h640/IMG_7603.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: left;">Archie followed us out there and was very curious about what we were doing, but was very scared of the boat and it took a good while before he'd even touch it.

I'm quite sure I didn't plan for it to look like a starry night sky. I just got lucky.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">I don't remember when I finally realized that I enjoyed taking pictures and had a little bit of aptitude for it. I don't remember when I got my first "real" camera. Oh, wait, it was <a href="https://myfavoritesheep.blogspot.com/2007/08/i-have-no-excuses.html"><b>August of 2007</b></a>, so I must have gotten it for my birthday, just a few months into my blogging :-).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">I actually enjoy when artists write to ask permission to paint my pictures. I know they could just go ahead and "steal" them (and I've caught a few on that over the years), but I love to hear from them and find out which picture they like and hopefully see what they create. Which reminds me, there is Yet Another Christmas Post coming!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">I think <a href="https://www.bonniemohr.com/collections/all"><b>Bonnie Mohr</b></a> might have been the first artist who contacted me about using one of my photographs. She'd picked the "starry night" picture. The very first picture I posted on my very first blog post. Well, actually it was the second picture on the page ;-). I loved what she painted!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje8X5cxYGKDDeyMPhhBjbaP0CEeaU6IES_Pc2Y7owecVq8Kjlgu2BfXddtTy1H_FqXNgVVncLrrXF1Vm8KXM6HwNq_fOAoXQN1BLy32mfaQD-AMyBQHk85LqWKPMtRCn5T6sDna4-P35_1XF-qzA9Jo5A5eXnPw8qGqXWJSKtsNG7gzY9P0UNXI_GCwN8/s594/PPPP%20Christmas%20Painting.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="594" data-original-width="453" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje8X5cxYGKDDeyMPhhBjbaP0CEeaU6IES_Pc2Y7owecVq8Kjlgu2BfXddtTy1H_FqXNgVVncLrrXF1Vm8KXM6HwNq_fOAoXQN1BLy32mfaQD-AMyBQHk85LqWKPMtRCn5T6sDna4-P35_1XF-qzA9Jo5A5eXnPw8qGqXWJSKtsNG7gzY9P0UNXI_GCwN8/w488-h640/PPPP%20Christmas%20Painting.jpg" width="488" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">She offered to sell us the painting and I would have loved to have bought it, but it was out of our price range. I'd checked back a few times over the years to see if she'd ever offered a print of it, but finally gave up. I do have a box of Christmas cards with the painting though. I stumbled across them at the <a href="https://livestockexpo.org/"><b>North American</b></a>. That was <a href="https://myfavoritesheep.blogspot.com/2009/11/wait-minutethose-are-my-sheep.html"><b>a great story</b></a> :-).</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">When I realized that today was my blog anniversary, I thought back to that picture and all the pictures I've taken over the years and how many have been used by artists all over the world (!) and am truly flattered. Out of curiosity I decided to search her website again, but couldn't find the painting anywhere. I started searching to see if it showed up anywhere else and luckily found it offered as a print from another merchant!</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I feel like so much of my life has been lucky. I also realize that the harder you work, the luckier you tend to be though. I am so grateful that I've worked hard enough over the years to have a blog that I can scroll back through 17 years of pictures and stories. And yes, there are plenty of things that sure didn't feel very lucky, but so many treasures along the way.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">And luckily I'm headed out the door to go take some more pictures.

Like Maisie, he's got plenty of hair and good weight, but when you get to be his age and it gets that cold, it's hard to keep up, even with a huge stack of hay in front of you.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Neither horse likes wearing a blanket and there's a lot of discussion about whether or not it is good or bad to blanket them, but if you stop shivering once the blanket is on, that tells me they help. Frankie probably could have made it without his, but why be colder than you have to be.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">I was able to get quite a few decent snow pictures over the last couple of days so I'll have more to share over then next couple of days.
