I have so enjoyed
my visit to your blog . . . so peaceful & positive! Wonderful
I'm just doing some blog-surfing and I thought I'd stop in and see what your journal is all about.
It's very informative and interesting.
I just love Saturday mornings...what if everyday was Saturday?....but then would I appreciate it as much. It's been noisy here this morning. Wild Bill is tied up since he's been bullying the nanny goats...to market to market he must go soon... and the guineas were squawking this morning...some new hatchlings (keets) have arrived and for once the mothers are being a little protective...'course that stirred up the peafowl... Lots of sounds here at the farm this morning! Roosters crowing too....now if I could just get them to lay eggs!!!
Two more baby goats born yesterday... Joy had twins, doelings, Autumn and Fall (Lindi named them)...and yes, we are rolling into fall this week. Pictures soon...All seems to be well in the goat yard with our little bottle baby Dot. She taken to escaping the goat compound and following farmer Richie around for the farm chores..."Me and my shadow, my shadow and me..." I heard him singing yesterday as I rolled in from work and had stopped to see the babies before I reached my parking spot...he was already feeding everyone...and there she was galloping along behind him...
Gotta run go get some feed.... Feed store here I come!
