It's been quite an exciting month here. I attended our first Icelandic National Specialty in
Wauseon, OH earlier this month with Poppi and Brana. Poppi went BIS under judge Diane
Anderson, and BOS under judge Pat Putman, and Brana got her CGC title.
My feet are still off the ground. The following weekend Bob and I took a trip with 2 pups
from our June litter to Shepherd Falls Farm in NY and brought back a beautiful moorit
ram. Steve and Mary have 2 pups from our 06 litter and their herd of Icelandics is
growing. The colors were fabulous and we did a tour of the wineries up the Cayuga, one of
the finger lakes.
We now have 2 Icelandic roosters. Hopefully next year we can add some hens. Thanks Carl.

The weather here in SE Ohio has been very warm for this time of year. We still haven't
had a fire in the woodstove yet. I think that's a first. Hay is in, firewood is in the shed,
sheep have been shorn, and the billy is in with the does, and the bucks are in with the 2
groups of ewe's, and the lambs just went to butcher this week. I'm still picking lettuce in
the garden, along with broccoli. We now have a new greenhouse that Bob has been working
on all summer. Our new crop of lettuce and spinach is already starting to grow inside, and
it's filled with herbs that I dug up out of the gardern.
We have so much to be thankful for.

Lambs have all been born, and the goats have all kidded. We have some lambs and kids for
sale. After the weekend I'll be working on a for sale page. We had 8 ewe lambs and 6 ram
lambs, and 3 doe kids, and 4 bucks. Our broody hen hatched out a few biddies, I put some
icelandic eggs under her and I think we have 4, hopefully they are hens. I got behind on the
shearing with the rains that we had in May instead of April but hope to have that finished
next week. Gracie will be having her puppies any day now, we are very excited about this
litter. I have a waiting list started so let me know soon if you are interested.

Most weekends I've been doing agility with Poppi and she how has her AKC novice agility
title. It's great fun, she just loves getting out there showing folks what she can do.
We did get out to show in conformation one weekend as well. More agility planned for late
Sept and Oct. It has been very hot and humid here in OH all summer so we are looking
forward to cooler weather coming next month. The hay is all in the barn, makes me feel so
good, and firewood for next year is being cut on cooler days. I am milking 2 goats making
lot's of cheese. Keeps me inside during these hot days.
We still have a few Icelandic sheep, a Nubian doe in milk with or w/o kids for sale go to
Farm for Sale page Also a few pups from our May litter are still available along with a
pup from our 2006 who has been guarding sheep go to Older dogs/pups for sale
