Swaying trees frame the rolling, grassy pastures as Kim Van Scoy, David Cooper and I perch ourselves on their beautifully kept deck. Eager autumn leaves poke through the season’s dying green in patches of copper and gold. Fresh cut hay resting on the ground gives the grass a soft shimmer. A few small, brown, moving specks dot the pond bank, while the rest of the sheep flock under the shade, evading the sun’s rays slicing through crisp, early October air.
