Songbird Thanks for your feedback!
It’s going to be fun seeing how all this plays out.
Some will play out in this first story. Most will play out in the next (as yet unwritten) story.
bakasi Next part is ready, but I have a full day ahead. I'll try to post tonight.
Nick Some of your questions will be answered in the next part.
Interesting comment about the sheep. The Bible says (in a different context) 'My sheep know my voice' and I've found that is true in a very practical sense. My sheep will follow me if I call them - or more truthfully, the older, leader sheep will follow me and the younger ones will follow them. And some of the more intelligent ones absolutely know their own names. If we want to catch one to drench or trim hooves, we try not to say her name because that alerts her that she's the target. However, we do have about 30 sheep - it is probably a lot different with 300.
Thanks for your thoughts, Nick.
