Oh boy. This is going to take a wee bit of adjusting to!!!
Sure is spring around here - so many projects to do.... glad for some great weather to help with things!!!
Sorry if nobody cares - but I went to a "local" (In North Dakota, everywhere within a 5 hour radius is considered local!) "Alternative Livestock Auction" on Saturday.... The usual hoofstock (llamas, goats, icelandic sheep, other sheep, some things that went "BLAAAAHHH" and could have either...
