#214 Memories

I was looking for photos of a sheep named Diamond, #214, for the last blog post. I didn't find the sheep but I found a lot of other favorite memories while searching #214. In no particular order:Fandango This is a sheep named Fran who is still here. In this photo she looks like her mom, Fanny who had spectacular horns. DSC_5214 (1) Columbia ewes at the Imperial Stock Ranch.
