I had a Siberian husky that mixed it up with a ram, and learned her lesson after getting butted broadside. On the other hand, my Belgian Malinois herded the sheep and the rams with no problem. The ram ended up butting air each time he tried to get the dog, and the dog would nip at its heels to get it in line.
A woman we know bought a used hammock. It broke in a similar way. Three operations later and she is still in constant pain. Yeah, I don't think I will be hammocking any time soon.
Yes, maybe 2 hours in a hammock, bent like a banana is all my back can stand. There's an outfit named haven tent (haventent.com) that has remedied that, they are made for camping.
Bridge hammocks. You can lay flat while the hammock top curves. Easy to make too. It's one of those ideas that's stupid simple but took forever to invent. Kinda like knitting needles and crochet hooks. Even primitive tribes (like the aborigines in Australia) carried a frickin' LOOM around with them to make cloth. Because nobody thought of it.
#8. It looks like the sheep (buck?) knows this kid and is playing gently. Sheep can hit pretty hard if they want to.

DeleteI would bet money that is a Romney Ewe. Maybe a Whether but one that has been played with before.

ReplyDeleteEvery time I've slept in a hammock (maybe twice?) I was in constant pain too.
DeleteAll the weight goes right to your ass. A hammock kills my back. I'd rather lay on a flat stone.

DeleteMuch harder to SHARE a bridge hammock though!
#6 Someone is trying to contract leprosy.
ReplyDeleteYou know, most people don't know that...
DeleteI certainly didn't. (Do now, of course...)
DeleteFirst thing I thought too.
DeleteLord, chances of getting Hansen's from an armidillo are slim but chances are.....

ReplyDelete#8 A practical use for the reflexes you build playing hackysack, as long as you can avoid kicking the tear gas capsule with your anklebone.
ReplyDelete#2: Stopping a dog from correcting a puppy rarely works out well in the end.
ReplyDelete#5: As much as I'd like to make a parenting comment here, I TOTALLY would have wanted to do that when I was that kid's age.
