The Old Folks Home

They are good at eating weeds and brush! And the kids are so adorable!

I do not want to feed anymore here and do not really have land enough but darn they cute

Don't have to shovel rain... unless it's freezing!! Gah!I hate cold, snow, ice.
But I'll take it rather than move to a place that has other problems.... earthquakes, floods, fires, alligators, etc. Better the devil you know than the devil you don't.

we do not want to live with any of that either but don't have to where we are either

Me too, Chicki. The last time I brought it up DH reminded me about the bad luck I've had with Marek's. The previous owner of our property - the one with the wormy sheep - also had goats. I bet real money that they were never tested for Johne's Disease or anything else. Not with the number of goat skulls we've found around the property.

He reminded me that I'd have to dig a bigger hole if a goat died.....and reminded me about the size of the hole we had to dig when one of our sheep died. Couldn't think of any counter argument at that point in time. What is the old saying? Sometimes you eat the bear and sometimes the bear eats you?

I want Nigerians!!! I can't talk the DH into it

Friends and relatives have tried to convince me to retire in Florida. Where you are sounds better than Florida!

If we had carcasses to dispose of we would incinerate them in a bonfire.

I've been told the Native Americans left California because it was too problemic, not a good place to live.

They probably felt earthquakes and had enough sense to leave!
