Stupid Goat

2/16/10 Tuesday
Last night I couldn’t sleep. It was just one of those nights. After 1:30am, I was wide awake all night.

Darlene called this morning. We thought she had gotten our message but she was calling to tell us that Buddah had jumped the fence as soon as he saw them pull in. Evidently he wants more food and went to welcome them! The gate between the chicken yard and the goat yard was open. The two pippin apple trees that Thomas planted before we left are now only 6 inches tall. Arrrrr! Stupid Goats!

We asked Dan to please increase their feed and hopefully that will work. Darlene said that if this keeps happening, they would take the boys to their barn and keep them there. We will see what happens.

The rest of the day was full of worry and concern for not only the goats but for the rest of our garden and also for the neighbors. The last thing we want is for the goats to get into something they shouldn’t and damage something.

Today only saw one trip to the hot spring but we went about 3:30pm. Trying to find the perfect time to go. It is open except for midnight-5am.

When we first arrived we met a couple from BC, Canada. They were in a trailer that he made. Inside was a wood burning stove made from an old propane tank. It was a really nice unit. The truck to pull it was an old fire truck.
Until tomorrow…….
