NEW GOATS! Oh Yeah, Real Estate stuff also

We got four new goats today. Yes pretty bizarre but true. The people who we got our first three goats from last year were looking for homes for the rest of their goats. I went over and picked them up this evening. What a surprise they are very cute. We have to work on names ad the ones they came with don't really appeal. They are all girls. One is a half sister to Stormy and one is a twin sister to Gurgle. They actually look smaller than our original ones. We figure they must be like goldfish, if they are kept in a small area they don't grow but if put in a larger environment they start getting bigger. We currently have them seperate from the others to make sure they don't have anything obviously contagious. We figure we'll worm them, clip hoofs, etc. once they get settled. Hopefully they get along with the current crowd. They all seem reasonably friendly, though a bit cautious. They were surprisingly good on the ride home. I had visions of having to scrape one or two off the road. Would have made for a difficult evening. The local paper probably would have had to report on it. Caroline figures this is probably enough goats now. We'll have to see.

On the business front Caroline got her trailer in Irasburg today and Hopefully is working on another contract. I had a building inspection for the property I have under contract at this point.

Here's a new flash, it rained today. We are running out of month but there is a possibility we could break the all time record for rainfall in June. That would be two months in a row with records. It is getting very depressing as far as getting outside chores done.
