That’s A Headwrap

October 18th, 2015

Not much new this week. Nothing I’m ready to discuss at this point in time at least.

It’s been a cold week. I’ve been struggling with feeling a little blue, and feeling a lot cold. Trying to find the right amount of clothing to get along and be able to spend enough time with the goats. I’ve had to get a headwrap thing to wear under my cap. Not very stylish. But I guess you gotta keep a bald head warm in winter somehow. Oh right, it’s not winter yet. Well, feels like it to me! I have ordered, and received, a heated baselayer shirt. Battery heat. I haven’t tried it out in the field yet. Maybe it will help. Fingers crossed. Emigrating to Peru is not off the table yet.

That’s all for now. Go go goat photos. First one of a warmly dressed one…

And videos.

And that’s all for this week, folks. See you in the next one.

The Fog Of Where

October 11th, 2015

It’s that time of year again. When I complain about the cold. It’s 10C/50F and my fingers are frozen. Booh. Guess it’s time for handwarmers. And 16 layers of clothes. Oh well. Summer is only… 8 months away. Sigh.

We had a nice foggy day, though. As seen in photos below. A moody atmosphere. Other than that it’s been mostly grey and a bit of rain. The goats are less and less excited about the grass. It’s not summer fresh anymore. But then at least there are fallen leaves to go for instead.

We’ve had some fun visitors too. First a couple of Somali girls who came into the pen and said hello to the goats. Especially Mio who is always the calm and sweet one with kids. And then yesterday a bunch of kids who delighted in feeding the goats at the fence. It’s always fun helping kids to have fun with the goats. And answering questions. I must have told them the goats’ names about a hundred times. Hah.

Peanut has become quite the breakout kid. Not surprising. Everything still comes easy to him. He’s jumping over all the fences inside. Half the time when I arrive in the morning I find him in the bunny compartment. He just jumps over the door. Probably to steal their food. He’s calmer now after the snippening, but still full of personality and energy. Duking it out with Palle often. A lot more respect for Mio now, though. She’s back to being the big boss.

Now I’m off to hibernate. Go go goat photos. First fog, though.

And videos.

And that’s all for this week, folks. See you in the new one.
