[Jacob-list] back from Canada

[Jim Millar]

Hello Sheep friends,

We have returned from PEI, (a beautiful world very serious about potatoes!) with 6 very cool, very wonderfully healthy sheep. Dan is just as I expected him to be (Don't you all just wonder at that??!!) His place on the island is so peaceful, his wife very fun, his donkey and dog much like my 4 kids (this is good). I traded wool for blankets at the woolen mill there.  The mill was worth the long drive to the other side of the island.  Every person we met there (believe me we were the only "tourists" there in mid-May!) was incredibly friendly and warm. It was nice to come home to an exploding spring (even though my locals are usually grouchy).  Maritime Canada was just begining to leaf out.

Royal, your sheep are beautiful and healthy.  I am happy to keep them for a while because while we were gone we had yet more rain and I can not keep up with the grass in my pastures.  I need a few more mouths until the inevitable summer drought hits.

I think I'll go out and stare at my new sheep like a dumstruck new mother!

P.S. Because I returned with a new ram I really need to move on my current ram.  I have far too many males on my farm.  He is 4 horned, nice wool, mellow dude.  Trades are workable for me.  Anyone in the market for a ram?      
                                                                                            Pam Millar
