Today was the second day we let the sheep out to graze and the soccer team got a front row seat on Bedlam  Farm in the Spring. Red is the official mascot of the soccer team, the players are fascinated by the way he works. They love watching Fate race madly around the sheep and some of them challenge her to races around the pasture.

They brought carrots to the donkeys and loved their soft noses. It was a gift having them here, they miss open spaces and love the country. They plan to visit often this summer, we are thrilled to have them. We went to the Round House Cafe for falafel sandwiches and then to Battenkill Books, where I told each of the players to pick out a book.

Three did, and that was a pleasure. Then we went over to Ed Gulley’s farm, Bejosh Farm.
