Just Some More

I can’t believe we’re already at the end of the week.  It goes so fast when I’m home kidding.

The sunset is moving back north.

Haley-staying out of the mud or waiting to sneak in???

It will be weird going to work after a two weeks. I’ll wish I were still home.  Just saying.

Finally Friday

With the long conference week at work, I’m even more happy than usual for Friday.

Here’s to the weekend!

Derecho Hay

I went into winter with a full barn.  The loft in the barn was all still filled with hay that we made right after the derecho.  The goats go crazy for this hay.

Pluto

Especially the bales that were made on the bottom.  They are full of cottonwood leaves and little twigs and branches.

Penelope and Perdita (see all the twigs left on the ground after they’ve chewed the bark off)

When they hear me bring out the hay that rustles like dried leaves, they come racing.

Daisy

I have to make lots of small piles to try and let everybody get some of this yummy hay.

Hera, Astra, Perdita, Popcorn, Chiffon, and Flora

Of course Pretzel gets to snack on it in the barn.

They are all going to be disappointed because (by the time this post goes up) we are out of that hay.

Moose

Now they’ll just have to make do with regular hay.  And I hope they never, ever get derecho hay again.
