 I'm off to counting sheep again some 300 I will see I take my van and hit the road four days I will be free Up to the North to heatherland the origin of the breed Good humor and my cigarettes is really all I need I'm looking forward to this trip for I enjoy the ride Five hours it will take me but I sure will love the sight My husband stays at home although he too does love the sheep but not alive that much he said more stewed in gravy deep I'll take some pics to show you guys the lovely sight of heather Hope these days it will not rain but I don't command the weather Saturday and Sunday we will visit some twentysix places On areas where men won't come to look at sweet sheepfaces And when I'm there I will go around to my sisters place as well she lives in the middle of a forest in a cosey house I can tell She has a really tiny horse and the little donkey is his friend twenty cats, some chickens and ducks, two dogs she has to attend So Mondayafternoon when I will have finished the inspections I'll turn my car and drive towards home following the directions I took the Tuesday off as well to recover this tired body of mine tell my adventures, look at the pics while sipping a glass of wine So you have to do without me but be sure I will come back till then I'm saying just goodbye I'm off to follow the old sheeptrack A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess... |

Enjoy the trip, sounds like it's gonna be fun. And bring the photo album back to show us. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Titia, sounds like a wonderful trip you're about to take, maybe a bit tiring in the long run, but when you see the pics you'll know it was a trip well worth taking. Thanks for sharing the adventure, wish I was coming along with you. |

Your poem was a fantastic report of the days to come, and I can hardly wait to see the pictures of the heather Titia. Wow, would I love to be in the truck with you, this sounds like so much fun. You take such awesome pictures, can you take a picture of your sisters house too? We will miss you sweet lady, and I look forward to hearing from you on your return. Have a safe, and wonderful trip. x o ~*~ Carpe' Diem ~*~ |
