The Front Face and Getting Stuck

The Boss setting off for his wee walk across the face.  He got the bike stuck coming across the Fault Bog (the daughters will know the one), but CC&B didn't dare take a photo "We" were not amused!!

And the cloud is dropping, there are sheep further up in it that we saw as we came out.  They did come down with Jake's noise.

Maid this is your mob to hunt up - I know you've seen them

And she's done it - uh uh it's Cruise, Maid must be a bit sore from the yard work the day before and wasn't keen on going across the gully - she is 10 years old now

And the ewes are off and pouring through the gate

and at the run disappearing into the distance

still running

even the tail enders aren't stopping.

I caught up with the lead halfway down the next block, while the Boss walked behind.  The lead was still running, even though there had been no dogging since before the gate.  Was just difficult to keep Cruise on task heading the sheep as he rather thought stirring up cows and calves was more fun.
And now the Boss has a happy weekend "dagging" and the ewes are full of energy so there will be much swearing me thinks.  ( CC&B  -  "I don't do dagging").
