		<title>There and Back</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am home now for a while. The trip to the BSG was long and arduous, but being there, and seeing so many friends was worth it. I took lots of photos, but on the last day, I lost my camera! I am still hoping that it will turn up as I continue to unpack the [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Grey Day (can be bright)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since I am committed to another 2 weeks in away working before the Black Sheep Gathering, I have been spending lots of time with sheep and in sheep-related passtimes. Halter training, tidying up yearling fleeces, studying lambs. I will make my decisions about who comes with me to the BSG at the eleventh hour, but [...]]]></description>

		<title>Almost relaxed&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I finally had some time today just to BE out there in the pasture with the lambs&#8230;they are growing so fast! Granted this is NOT news to any other shepherds, but it always seems miraculous to me that they go from tiny little clinging-to-mom babies to self-sufficient grazing animals all in the space of six [...]]]></description>

		<title>Another Homecoming</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My part-time work off the farm means that there are many sad leave-takings and many happy homecomings. This past trip happened just three weeks after lambing&#8230;by the time I left for AZ, Jiggs had spent his days with the mamas and lambs, but hadn&#8217;t spent any nights in the barn. He still thought that he [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Camera&#8217;s Eye</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t have a lot to say today; too many clouds on my horizon, so I will show you what my camera saw yesterday&#8230;.quite a few rams (!) but lots of exciting markings and loads of substance:
These are Sheltering Pines Plein Jeu&#8217;s lambs this year; both rams but&#8230;.oh my! One of them is clearly a [...]]]></description>

My story: the really truly double life of a bottle lamb&#8230;.
I sleep every night in the house with my human family; I wake up in my box in the dining room and as soon as I ask, my bottle is ready. I have to wear these things on my fanny when I am in the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Just a little breathing room&#8230;please?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The time since my last working trip to AZ in March, and the upcoming one (just one week away) has been filled with lambing and catchingup on farm chores. Lambing was intense this year (all of it happened in a week, and most of it in 5 days). I will put up some lamb photos [...]]]></description>

		<title>In our wildest dreams&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[2010 lambing is finished here at Stonehaven Farm&#8230;.all the lambs were born in 5 days! The whole time was intense, but Thursday night was amazing (6 ewes lambed between 8:00 PM and 8:00 Friday morning). I can&#8217;t imagine how those who lamb out hundreds or even dozens of sheep manage to survive. We had no [...]]]></description>

		<title>Getting there&#8230;&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Lilka continues to try to eat, but she just isn&#8217;t consistently eating enough roughage. It is a difficult in-between time; she is too well to tolerate spending the day in her pen when the others are outside. Besides fretting and stressing herself, she is strong enough now to jump out and has tried almost successfully. [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Close Call</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lilka was born last spring and from the beginning it was obvious that she would stay on here at Stonehaven Farm. Everything about her was beautiful to my shepherd&#8217;seye&#8230;she is a katmoget (light badgerface genetics) with a perfect little body,  a big soft lustrous fleece with the long single coat that we have been breeding [...]]]></description>
