Despite the white on white camouflage, all sheep are accounted for as they march to the shore for elevensies seaweed snack.
And back to hot cocoa and warm fire as the first flakes of nor'easter # I've lost count descends. Comforted in the knowledge that all is well on the islands and in awe of those hardy island girls.
