In the company of greatness!

When I got back Sunday night, I began the arduous process of wading through nearly 200 emails (and a mountain of dusty, dirty laundry). One of the emails looked bogus, a hacker's ploy to get you to click on an infected hot link. I didn't take the bait, but didn't delete the email, either. After all, what if Boulderneigh really had been voted one of the top agricultural blogs?

Eventually yesterday I had a moment to enter the website in my own browser window to see if it was legit. Lo and behold, a list came up, showing Boulderneigh as #21 in the top 45 agricultural blogs on the net, including Pioneer Woman and Farmgirl! I don't know how I got there, but the company - including nine blogs I follow and enjoy - sure is good. :-)

So how about some agricultural content (since I still haven't had a chance to look at my photos)? When we got back, I decided to play "upset the fruit basket" with the sheep. After two weeks of quarantine and no symptoms whatsoever, I decided it was safe to put Bronwen back with the ewe flock, along with Browning who had been keeping Barish company in the Ram-ada Inn. Banjo got separated from his mother (who needs all the calories she eats to put some flesh back on her bony frame) and put in with the other older lambs, along with Barish. I watched that introduction carefully, but Barish is just as mellow with the little boys as I expected he'd be. He did butt heads with Bodhran once, because Bodhran challenged him (the little upstart). After one meeting with those aberrant horns, Bodhran decided he'd had enough and they've all been cohabitating the "wood lot" nicely - if you can ignore Banjo squalling for his mama. The upside of his noisy weaning is that suddenly he wants my attention, so I'm loving him up for Jeannie. Now we just need to get Rick to wether his brother so they can move to their new home....

That's it for now from . . .
