Anxious

With the snow melting on the hillside the sheep are anxious to get out and graze. The pigs are not helping.  They are happily digging in the dirt along the barnyard fence.  The dirt and roots on the other side have got to taste better than the dirt inside.  That's just how it works.  We looked outside and found Scarlett wandering around the barnyard, outside of the fence.  I quickly prepared her breakfast and back in she ran, sailing over the part of the fence that needs propping up.  Piggies are very smart - they are always probing for a weakness.  I am keeping their tummies full and their beds fluffed.  When they heard us forking hay down for them, the sheep turned and ran back into the barn.
