And whoever's lap it ends up in when it crashes through the windshield!

With today's sub compact cars, what's left of them would drive right under it... maybe lose the roof.

A moose hits the windshield on pretty much any vehicle. Going under it would be a bonus!

greybeard - I bought that sprayer after I rented one from the Co-op that had a high center of gravity. I started up one of our hills and decided I would rather the tractor stay upright and not laying on its side so that hill didn't get sprayed that day.

We spent the day at our dog training farm picking out the 10 ewes we will be bringing home tomorrow after our training session. All 10 of these came out of her commercial flock but they are all nice looking sheep. There aren't any firm breeding dates but they are all bred with some looking like they will be lambing soon.

We were able to help trim hooves on most of that flock so it was a good learning experience for both of us.

Congrats on your soon to be sheep

10 bred ewes! You will have an instant flock! Are you going to castrate the ram lambs? With the help of a neighbor, we cut our 2 ram lambs at 2 weeks old. It wasn't hard to do and after we set them down, they ran to momma for a suckle and were fine.

I can't wait to see pictures!!!!

We will band them. Neither of us have experience but we can go back and help them band to give some more hands on. It's nice to have a good one stop source for most of what we need to know. We are there once a week anyway with our dogs.

Our Great Pyrenees will be brought home Thursday (I think I posted earlier). There is more going on than what we are used to.
