The Winter 2016-2017 front page photo was a bit different this season, so thought I would provide some details before question marks popped up.

The place is Uzbekistan. The sheep are most likely Karakuls. They sure do look like it. The photo was taken by Rick Misterly of Rice, Washington, a neighbor 5 miles down the road from Julia DeVlieg’s Anakus Karakuls. Date is the 1987 Peace Fleece Trip.   What is Peace Fleece?

Since 1985 Peace Fleece International is still going strong. Peace through Fleece.
