Frankie

February 15th, 2013

As I mentioned my good friends Deb and Sam lost one of their sweet goats recently. An adorable little guy called Frankie. They had him for seven years, the same amount of time I knew Magnethe. If you have ever lost a pet or just an animal you have known and cared for for so long then you know how hard it is. We love them so much, don’t we? And there is never time enough.
Well, Deb and Sam asked me to make a tribute video with pictures of Frankie. And I have done so. So please take a couple of minutes to watch his cuteness, if you can,

I dreamt about goats last night. Vanilje was there. I think Magnethe was there. Maybe even Mads. Dreams always fade foo fast, I don’t really remember anything of it other than Vanilje comically falling backwards several times. But I always love when my old goat friends visit me in my dreams. Hopefully Frankie has settled in nicely with all the others up there on the great field of grass in the sky. To some people they are “just goats”. But to us they are friends and we would dearly like to see them again some day.

Rest in peace Frankie.

Trending #Goats

February 10th, 2013

Not much to report this week. Other than my trip to the super bowl nothing has really happened.

That was a joke. I did have a nice supper bowl, though.

The weather has bee nmixed. Rain and sleet and snow. Day temperatures around 0. I hope they will go up soon rather than down.

I bet the goats agree with me. And since there’s nothing interesting to talk about let’s just skip ahead to the pictures.


I never get tired of Kamel’s headrolls.


Mama, baby and me makes three.


Bob keeping an eye on things.


Mia looking up.


Balancing.


Mia watching Felix on the other side of the fence.


What a peculiar goat you are!

And videos. First a goatlog from Monday. A little bit of snow that quickly rained away. Otherwise the usual little funsies.

And goatlog from Thursday. I like how Mio is standing at the bench, waiting patiently while I set up the camera. Once I sit down and take out the bag of old bread and banana peels there is no more patience. There is only Zuul.

And that’s all I got today. See you in the funny goat pages.
