Getting goats ready for a sale takes work. Catch the goats, load the goats in the trailer, drive to Shattuck to Taylor’s heated barn (beings how it is May and below freezing), unload the goats and trim hooves. That is pretty well where my work stopped. At that
It is May 2. I was wearing shorts–no shirt, on Sunday afternoon. Last night and this morning–32 degrees, snow, sleet & drizzle rain. And then there is this EFFing wind that has just been relentless for several months now, save for a couple of beautiful days. This
