The goat moms starting having their kids the evening after school was out for the summer. ( I had told them that if they expected any help from me, they would need to wait until I was finished with school). We just had our last goat kid less than a week ago. We have 13 cute baby goat kids bouncing all over the place down there in the goat paddock.
The garden is doing Ok now that we are getting some rain, but there will be no green beans and no corn...rabbits ate the beans and Doa helps herself to the corn every time we get some up a few inches tall. So we have decided, since we really like corn and beans, that before next year we will have to put a serious fence around the garden. The potatoes have done great and the tomatoes, squash, cukes, pumpkins and cantaloupe all look good. We are having a few of the first squash tonight for supper.
Work on the barn is coming along steadily but slowly. The next step is to put on the trusses.
Lance, the livestock guardian, is doing his job well and doing much better about staying on the property, so he has now been promoted and is allowed out of the paddock and into the pasture. He still get grouchy with goats, chickens and even the horse if they get too close to his food, but I guess I understand that.
Hope everyone is having a great summer!
