This was 'Day at a Farm' for groups of inner city kids.  They moved in small groups to each of the various demos.

Pam's pack would love to get a turn.

My Jayne fetching.  They had mowed some of the field which is why it is so green.  The brown didn't get cut last year.

Jayne has brought them to my feet.

Loaded sheep ready for ride home.

Pam's sheep seem to like going for a ride. They make me laugh when I follow behind her going down the road.

Demo done.  ALL the collies get to have a run & play out in the field.  What a great day!
