Making friends is tough to do

The new ram lamb arrived yesterday -- and I imagine he feels like a sixth-grader enrolling in a new school in April.

All of the friendships and pecking orders have been established, and he is the outsider.

But he knows enough to stick with the flock and to enjoy the grass. In time, he'll make some friends and become part of the flock.
