The Look In Red’s Eyes

The Look In Red’s Eyes

The temperature dropped to well below zero this afternoon, Red took up his position across from the Pole Barn, keeping the sheep in place. Someone on Facebook said that Red looked cold, but that, of course, is a projection. Red does not notice the cold or the heat, he will sit outside forever if not commanded to do otherwise. He gives the sheep his best eye and holds them in place as the snow piles up on his head and the wind shrikes.

Red loves every second that he is working, it is the point of his life.
