everybody came and we spend the large part of the day working on panels that will be kidding pens.   It's what we do Best,  Us,  build things for Goats.   And they,  the Goats wandered in and out of the work.   Emrie told them things.  She suddenly has All Words.   She worked too,  like a two year old does,  pounding with a stick.  Pouring dirt and pine needles here and there.  And all  the while,  this Cloth received Wind.   It felt like how Life should be.

    i like that…looks like an apron…apron…love the feel of
    the word apron in my mind, in my mouth….
    only one “boy”…Jenny’s man, the 9 yo boy is still in New Jersey with his father. He misses summer here. To me, it’s a bummer.
    All the long days, openended days, not here. He leaves a week
    after school is off and returns a week before it begins again and
    then we have that routine of gone all day.

    we might try it a different way next time…maybe he’ll go
    for the winter holiday and then just a couple weeks
    in summer. I hope so. He has a big family there tho…
    2 grandmas that LOVE him

    that’s what it looks like…Vet comes tomorrow, we’ll see.
    If so, Was not a deliberate breeding….something they
    managed through the fence.
    either way, the construction will be good to have
    for multiple use.

    You guys worked so hard in the heat. My lovely daughter and her friend went to a brew pub near Santa Cruz, and took part in a Yoga with Goats on the patio. My favorite picture is of her holding a sleeping goat in her arms. Another photo is of the little goats eating the potted plants! She is an animal lover, and works for veterinarians, and has a sense of humor! I’m excited for your babies, however it came to be.
