Colorado

We have some friends who have a sheep ranch in Colorado. They also raise free range chickens and geese and have a donkey and a few horses.

A couple times Pere and I have gone there and helped them during the lamping season. When Z was four we took her along and she helped Pere and I with taking care of the rest of the farm while our friends handled the birthing of 40 ewes.


The guest house is a 1930's kit house.


she loved it and would have fit in well as a girl in another era


Her main job was hand feeding the gosling


feeding the chickens


petting some lambs


having a snack


Picked a dandelion


caught one of the chickens


hugging one of the giant farm dogs


feeding hay to the donkey


singing to herself


Relaxing at the neighbors winery. (she just had water!)

Hopefully we will be able to take another trip there next spring.
