I'm just now putting up pics of our four newest kids!
Having goats is so cool... we're not only blessed with the milk in springtime, but we have these cute babies to play with (and photoshoot).
Meet Hector (left) and Achilles (right). Unlike the legendary heroes after whom they were christened, these boys are the best of friends :-)
Flicka is both a great mother and a star milker.
And here is Laura. She's wondering if the taste of clover trumps that of milk.
She's quite the social type. She doesn't know better than to chat with strange sheep.
Pastoral at its best.
Bob and Laura
"Mom, not in front of the guys!"
"Do you chew straw? Mind if I do?"

Lately we've been busy with yard improvement (we had a lot to do :-) Why all the trouble? I don't know... but I'll bet the spring weather is partly to blame.
So, I jump to the finale: a pine straw marathon. Emori, the evil task master seen holding the wooden rod, saw to it that the complaining workers filled the whole trailer before heading home from the woods :-)
Our version of "American Gothic."
And I close with a sunset scene. Actually, I'm not sure when this was taken... but, you know, it just seems right to place it at the end of the post :-).
Thanks for dropping by!
Yours truly,
Callie
