Sheep


Sometimes life hands you crazy situations, and then sometimes you find yourself on a hunt for sheep. Last Monday while out to lunch with the staff from Brookside we were discussing a news article about a woman who has a couple sheep mow her grass. As a result we were all rather curious and drove to the neighborhood where they were. The news article didn't give an address, so a few questions to the mailman and neighbors later we found ourselves in front of the women's prison taking pictures of two sheep! I couldn't believe what was happening, here I was standing just a few minutes from downtown Indianapolis taking pictures of sheep in someone's front yard. This women who owns the sheep is amazing, she uses them for her grass as well as the vacant lots in the neighborhood. It is amazing the different ways community development works itself out. I am thankful that God allowed this women to be creative with the resources that were given to her and that the Brookside staff are spontaneous :)
