You chased off cows with a broom? Must have been some broom! : )<BR/><BR/>So glad your kids are enjoying hearing about Cary. Thanks for letting me know.<BR/><BR/>Hi Kalyn,<BR/>No, it wasn't our cow. And after hearing your story, I suppose it could have been worse--it was only out in the field, not in the house. But speaking of indoor intruders, this morning a seemingly paralyzed mouse materialized out of nowhere and was sitting right in the middle of the walkway from the kitchen to the living room. I grabbed Molly Doodlebug and tried unsuccessfully to point out the mouse to her, at one point practically dropping her snarling little body right on top of it. She never saw it, and during the whole episode, the mouse didn't move. I finally plunked an empty sour cream container over it, scooped it up with my gloved hand covering the top, peeked in long enough to see that the mouse was alive, and deposited it halfway between the barn and the house. Never a dull moment. Oh, and bear in mind I was only half awake during this operation.<BR/><BR/>Hi Sunidesus,<BR/>No, lamb packs are the "gangs" of the barnyard. You won't believe those little troublemakers. More about them another time.<BR/><BR/>Glad you like the camo-lamb. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Jade,<BR/>Thanks. Yep, I've definitely put "Email Alice Cooper" on my To Do List. <BR/><BR/>And yes! We need to come up with a good song I can request. Then, of course, I need to ask him to please let me know before he plays it so I can be down in the barn. Plus if I have any advance notice, I can let interested FF readers know and they can tune in if they get his show.<BR/><BR/><B>So here's my plea for help:<BR/><BR/>We need some kind of barnyard/animal themed classic rock song!</B><BR/><BR/>Oh Yellow Dog Bob,<BR/>Well, aren't you just too sweet. And I'm so glad you love the garden blog. Even though the idea was to start basically an online personal gardening journal for myself, I (obviously) realize other people read it, and sometimes I find myself thinking: Who is going to care about this!? Then I remind myself it's MY personal garden journal--or somebody like you leaves me a great comment. Thank you.<BR/><BR/>And you don't need to trade your dogs in for sheep--just add to the menagerie. They will all get along--look at The Nanny Bear. Plus, as a gardener, you know you want some of that special organic sheep fertilizer. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Beverley,<BR/>It's always so nice to hear from you. And I've been meaning to email you for ages. (Figured I'd put that here since you'll no doubt see it before the email, LOL. Where does the time go?)<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, no, that camo-lambo was not one of the three missing lambs that were <A HREF="http://foodiefarmgirl.blogspot.com/2006/05/daily-farm-photo-5206.html" REL="nofollow"><B>taken in the night by an unknown/unseen predator.</A></B> That sure was a lovely thought, though.<BR/><BR/>Hi Sonia,<BR/>Thank you!<BR/><BR/>Hi Stephen,<BR/>Ha ha ha ha ha, so you've just admitted you listen to Alice Cooper's radio show by choice? Hmmmmmm. Interesting. The sheep listen by force. Patchy Cat listens by choice, though. He is definitely one crazy guy (Alice. But Patchy Cat is, too.)Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1148233028767483932006-05-21T12:37:00.000-05:002006-05-21T12:37:00.000-05:00We have Alice here in Portland, and now we always ...We have Alice here in Portland, and now we always think of you and your gang in the barn when we have him on...!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1148219564331544602006-05-21T08:52:00.000-05:002006-05-21T08:52:00.000-05:00Amazing photo!Have a nice Sunday!Amazing photo!<BR/>Have a nice Sunday!sonia a. mascarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02415359150944729620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1148194611920606352006-05-21T01:56:00.000-05:002006-05-21T01:56:00.000-05:00Hang on a minute, it's early Sunday morning here s...Hang on a minute, it's early Sunday morning here so excuse me if I'm not too lucid FG but is the lamb one of the flock previously thought to have succombed to the mystery predator?
