Simon has a nice pool in the greenhouse

It’s Valentine’s Day; it seemed entirely appropriate to reveal to the world that Simon has a boyfriend. 

On nicer days Simon accompanies us when we visit the sheep. She hangs out on the sheep side of the fence while we scratch Aiden and all his girlfriends in the places they like to be scratched. Simon generally ignores the noisy geese on the other side of the fence and they tend to ignore her.

The last week we have noticed that one of the geese hangs out separate from the rest of the flock when Simon is in with the sheep. We have named him Randall. Randall and Simon have been conducting a coy courtship through the fence under the watchful eyes of her chaperones.

Since today was Valentine’s Day- Ellie let Simon spend a little time on the same side of the fence with Randall. Simon and Randall conversed until Corinne swooped in like an over zealous middle school hall monitor. Everyone was placed on the right side of the fence and Corinne’s world was back in order.

Any way- HAPPY VALENTINE”S DAY! 

Simon now checks her look before she goes out
