What's wrong with this picture?

It is customary to butcher a sheep each Memorial Day weekend. It happens every year. What doesn't happen every year is butchering in the house. It was extremely windy outside. More so than I have ever seen it. So, rather than have sand peppered mutton, it was decided that we would take it indoors. If only you could see the wheelbarrow underneath it all. Rather a fancy get up really. Usually butchering is done with the sheep hanging upside down by the legs, but apparently you can do the same thing in the small confines of a wheelbarrow. Definitely harder, but goes to show with determination, all things are possible. (Even cleaning out intestines for consumption....not by me.)
