day 4 on the ranch


today was interesting, both awesome and really gross!

first of all we got to wrestle with the sheep which was so much fun! they would be brought into the circle and we had to divide the wooly sheep from the ones that have already been sheared. you had to grab them by their wool and direct them into the path you wanted them to go! and once again the CANADIAN girls kicked ass and were totally awesome! that was fun. but when it came time to actually shear the sheep it was totally gross! i dunno if this is normally how they do it or if they were going to fast or the shears where dull but they kept knicking the sheeps skin and it would bleed and some times they got it deep and i just felt so horrible for those poor poor sheep! but the wool looks cool... lol then the rest of the day we drove around his farm and took pictures of some of the horses they were going to sell.

a very interesting day for sure!
