For wealth is a source of trouble, and a jeweled crown is a load;
I'll take my home in the open, with a mixture of sun and rain--
Just give me my old sheep wagon, on the boundless [Hilltops] plain."
Finished with lamb marking over the weekend and happy to sit all day, watching the lambs enjoy a well-fertilised pasture. We rotate chickens and sheep in a natural cycle that cares for the soil and nourishes our pastures. On a sunny spring day, the best home is out in the open, sitting on a blanket and watching the two white lambs.
If only the eggs would collect and pack themselves!
