A cozy little fire...
was followed by breakfast where we all simultaneously looked
out the kitchen window when we heard a sheep baah.
And sure enough there was an escapee sheep standing there
looking at which of my bushes he would like to sample first.
With no time to loose…
Seb donned the sound amplifying headgear to pursue
the wooly beast who had by then ran off down the road.
With the sheep eventually located and chased back into his own field
we moved onto the horses and donkeys.
The last adventure of the day consisted of harvesting chestnuts.
And what a harvest it was and would have been if only the hunters hadn't been out in force. We found a shotgun shell casing and then saw a deer (alive and well walking through a field). After seeing the hunter and his dog we decided to pack it in since we had no fluo clothing or ringing bells and were afraid to be mistaken for some wild game. The chestnuts are the largest and most beautiful we have found in years…..I'll let you know how they taste!
