Haik-Ewe

Hi Folks -
Given the fact that our sheep seem to prefer being in the north pasture under the shade of the ever-spreading velvet mesquite tree, today's mailbox seems completely appropriate.

Now that "life on the farm" exists only as a cultural memory for most people in the United States, and they don't observe domestic animal behavior other than pet cats and dogs and a parakeet or two, sheep are represented as sorta stodgy and stupid. That's one reason that Shaun the clay-mation Sheep is so funny -- he flies in the face of what you are expecting a sheep to be. But if you dig a little deeper, you can find sheep creating art, and sheep creating poetry. So you are a non-believer here? I will let the results speak for themselves.
