Annual Sheep Drive





Each spring a big sheep ranch nearby drives their sheep through the BLM land down to get sheared. Today is the day. There's hundred's of sheep behind our house. I looked out the window and they were just there.

There's only one man that we can see and he has 3 border collies herding the sheep. There are also 2 other big white dogs that are just part of the herd. Jack says they are there to protect the sheep from predators.

Zach thinks it's really cool. He was baaaa'ing and saying 'sheep'. So cool... this is why we moved to Idaho. You don't get this on Pacheco Blvd.

That is so sweet that Zachary was making sheep noises. You sure got that right not on Pacheco Blvd. Too cool. I do like Idaho a lot. Love, Kimmie
