We’ve finally been able to feed hay to the ram lambs in the corral, so they have at least been able to get out of the barn. We’re hoping to repair and reorganize enough in the next couple days to get all the lambs out of the barn and back into secure paddocks. Everyone is safe inside the exterior fencing (which we still need to make it all the way around to check for downed limbs) but it is kind of chaotic inside that fencing. At least, so it seems to the shepherdess/s who are used to having some semblance of a plan for each season.
So today begins, two weeks behind in the fall chores, and a new plan being created somewhat on the fly. Oh well, as Leonard Bernstein, once said, “To achieve great things, two things are needed; a plan, and not quite enough time.”
