Spring Clip 2007

Today the ewes got haircuts and pedicures. I was disappointed with the quantity of wool we got. It's mostly going to the compost pile. Here are the ewes - notice they're getting as far from me as they can within the confines of the fence.

We had a sort of multicultural St. Patrick's Day dinner after finishing the shearing. Leg of Icelandic lamb (homegrown of course) and cabbage rolls and tall glasses of real milk. And in celebration of the finished job, I'm drinking a bottle of Canadian lager.
