Sheep Alert!

Tuesday, my older girl, Taylor, decided to go hiking with one of her friends from work.

They do this rather often but they got a surprise this week - bighorn sheep!

I'm not sure if she's ever seen them before or not, but she was sure excited when she got home. When Troy worked at the Quality Inn in Boulder City, he'd see them all the time since the hotel was practically on the lake. But not something we run into in the city much.

Tay said there were also babies, but she must not have gotten any in the pics. She sent a couple videos but they were so compressed that they're not very clear. But listening to her and her friend freaking out over how cute they were brightened my day.

Pictures are because sharpiesgal asked. :D I'm sure she was thrilled to hear me talking about something other than the crazy ass men I have to deal with daily.

Not sure if you can knit with their wool or not though. :D

There are people who knit with dog hair!

Interesting... I can start sending you Violet/Nayla hair every time I brush them if you want to give it a go. LOL!

Let me be direct, I don't make yarn out of anything except yarn! Full stop. But there are people who would take your cat hair! Probably

HAHAHA. I figured that if pet hair sweaters were your jam, Eggs would have supplied you with plenty by now. :D

Neat, and I can hear Taylor going crazy over them.

As to the crazy men, is that the real or the imaginary?

I cracked up when she said, "OH MY GOD THEY'RE SO CUTE!" That's my kid. :D

Both? Zayne's bitching in my ear and Tim's harassing me. Send help. Or tequila.

Lol.

Zayne stop your bitching. Barney Rubble will you go quietly into your retirement, for God's sake.

Zayne will never. He says it's part of his charm.

Tim, on the other hand, heard from Rhett about my recent adventures with the fire inspector. "You know, Amy," he says, "he sounds like he's probably single." NOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I've done my time, thanks. :D

Zayne will if I smack him enough times...lol

Seriously, dude. *shakes head*

Good point, but then we'll have a sulky, grumbly cowboy.

I'm telling you. I have too many men in my life. LOL (Sadly, he's probably not wrong.)

Oh wow, that is so cool! Thank you to [livejournal.com profile] sharpiesgal for asking you to post the pics!

Aren't they neat? I haven't seen one in years, but I don't go out that way either. Glad you enjoyed seeing them. :)
