Goat doings
So I tell everyone that I bought my 3 Nigerian Dwarf goats purely for entertainment. It certainly wasn't a practical purchase. I named them the 3 stooges, Larry (the leader), Curly (for one curly horn and he's the friendliest), and Moe (the fiesty, stand-off-ish one). I've only had them for a year but they have fulfilled their purpose here! Yesterday, for instance, I just happened to look up towards the barn from the house. At that exact moment Larry, Moe, then Curly, one after the other, come flying around the corner of a gate heading toward the barn as if in flight from a predator. The predators, and I use this term in the absolute loosest way, were 2 of my male alpacas!! Right after Curly comes Tripper, then Skye. Right on their heels. Then they all screeched to a halt in their pen. This was all just for fun! Just for me! Then there was the time when Moe had jumped over a stall gate and walked out the front door of the barn. As soon as he saw me coming he ran back in the barn. The closer I got the more he paced as if to say, 'Moms coming, I'm in big trouble!' Then he just up and jumped over the stall gate and looked up at me as if I'd been seeing things! They just make me laugh. Anyway, if you have goats you laugh more.
