Fenced in

Well, I've done it.  I put a fence gate between the bunkhouse and the dogyard... so now we are all caged in.  Kind of, at least for now.  

Um, will sheep always wander- hence the "like sheep have gone astray" saying?  Because I don't trust them enough to stay here, and it's way too much of a hassle to go running down the mountain looking for them.

With the snowpack, they won't go off trail... but still.  I don't like living behind a fence where I have to open a gate every time I need to go down the mountain.

Then again, I guess it's better to have a fence than be chasing sheep all the time.  Hmmm.
