Fiber Fingers....
My current make-shift skirting table. This actually has had multiple purposes. It's also been used for a duckling and chick brooder cover.
Ta-da the official fleece

I love the smell of lanolin. I love the feel of the residue on my hands. My husband thinks I'm nuts but what good would it do for a gal to love her sheep and not get something out of the way they smell!
ELECTRIC NETTING
ElectroNet by Premier1
I'm an advocate so far....
I'm on my 3rd strand. What a tool for a shepherdess who's not keen (nor handy-woman inclined) on building permanent fences! I haven't had problems with driving the stakes into the ground so it's not too intimidating to readjust the shape of the netted corals. I plan to pick up some T stakes to make the angles and turns more taunt in and around the grazing area and grape rows. This product has opened up some opportunities for me to attempt with these weed munchers. I'm pumped!

A little wine on the side.....
a friendly event
Fortunately, the vineyard has a contract with a local winery for the purchasing and processing of this year's harvest but we thought we'd do a little private vintage on the side. It was fun! We took two nights out of our week and are off to a great start for the wine process.
