Good frosty March morning!


Hope our little apple buds don't freeze! This is typical for our property, as we live on the west side of a hill which doesn't get the heat or the sun like flat land does. I would have taken some pictures of the frosted blueberry bushes this morning but I was in a hurry getting some of the horses' hay to put in the trailer for the billy goat we are headed up to purchase today.

We headed out early as we  had about a 3 hour drive 1 way to fetch the little fella.

...A sweet "moonspotted" Nubian " )
Our little goat family isn't sure about him yet, but they will get it sorted out before too long. We plan to offer him for stud service to folks desiring to breed their does to a registered dairy goat, and hopefully save up for some registered dairy does ourselves. He will breed with the 2 (unregistered) Nubian-mix does that we already have this year and see what quality kids they have and be able to milk the older doe at least.

Have a great, restful night and don't forget to "spring forward"!
