Lucky sheep. Interesting story - thanks for the post.

If I were not so well behaved I might have said something like "Hey, he got a date for the dance!!!!!" Seriously, anyone who can ski is one up on me. I have tried once, gave everyone a great laugh. To be able to ski down a mountain while carrying a sheep is pretty good. Sheep are not known as happy passengers. I had to carry one on a motor cycle once. I got kicked, it twisted and fought the whole way, I have no idea of how long it took to do the ride (only a couple of kilometers back to the house), but I was stuffed and my nerves were shot by the time I got back.

Southern Son: You are right. Sheep know a good thing. I carried one out of a gully on my shoulders and it didn't cause me any problems at all. It was pretty scrawny (as am I) but rather than leave it to die and rot I carried it out for dog food for the farmer.......who laughed at me (he always laughed at me in fairness though).
