Anakin and Angus
Today was pretty cold so no gloves meant no fingers! 8 degrees when I first took hay around the stalls at 7AM. I have the monitor on by my bed and at 4AM had to whack it a couple times because of the static. I had this fear of loosing a kid to the weather like last year, and it was Twee who lost a doe in the snowstorm last January. She is due now, and I was watching the field with her out there all day, worried that she might kid in this extreme cold.
Here's a little goat video that is already a day old, but I though you might enjoy four day old goats. Its hard to believe how much more mobile they are today.
Oh! And Angus is the larger kid with lighter ears. He was the slow starter, but is catching up fast
Talk about putting your best foot forward. That is just tooooo cute! Thank you for taking the time in the cold to get these shots! I could hear from your video that is was C-O-L-D.
The blog is really notes to my friends, old and new, to let you know what's going on in our lives. Its also a diary of sorts for myself. It started at the farm in Ligonier, PA, hence the name, but now life and work has moved us back to Connecticut,
I've always taken lots of photos and sent postcards from everywhere we travel, just to keep in touch. Email took over and then the digital camera.
Instead of me plugging up your email, you can check in when you have the time.
And yes, another town with the same problems as any other!!!
Please enjoy and let me hear from you...really~

I know a lot of people know English much better than we know any other language, but for those that want some help, me included, I'm trying this translator. Please leave a message to let us know where you are viewing from. Ciao!
