Tending sheep was hard work, especially now that they were getting close to shearing season, but Wil enjoyed it, had been raised to do it, and was grateful that his brother allowed him to stay at the family farm with his wife instead of forcing him to strike out on his own. It also helped that he was there to keep an eye on their younger sister with her penchant for trouble. He hoped that perhaps his wife would be a positive influence on Dagny.
After dinner, with his siblings off doing their own things, he'd suggested that he saddle up his horse and take Eretria for a ride. With the recent murders, he was insisting that she stay at the farm and not venture into town unattended which he knew was not ideal. He hoped that taking her out for a bit would be a reasonable way to make that up to her.
"Have you decided what dress you'll be wearing to the wedding on Sunday?" he asked. His only good suit was the one he'd worn to their own wedding and he was planning to wear that.
