Pete







Well we have had a sad day here at the Wild and Wooly farm. Many of you have heard the stories of Royce's pet sheep "Pete" When I got home from girls camp, Royce told me how Pete had gone fishing with him down to duck pond. And how he (Pete) had enjoyed it so much, he even went into the water to play! Yesterday morning Royce couldn't find Pete anywhere, but he thought he would turn up, as the day progressed he decided he had better go looking, and finally headed off toward the creek. He found him but not before a mountain lion had. So a fair warning to anyone wanting to fish down at the creek, right now might not be the best time, since we have a mountain lion on the loose. Poor Pete, he really was Roycee's bud, and he will sure miss him.
