I am very disappointed that I forgot to take my camera. I could not believe it. There were many great photo ops, but that will be next time.
Connor, who is 5, made friends with a boy his size right off. The next thing we knew Connor was leading someone's goat through the goat pens. The boys are excited about taking Honey Bunny and Billy Shakespeare to a show. Even Don liked it!
He said for me to find out when the next show is, we were told there is one in the Spring in East Texas, and he will take a vacation day if necessary. It is so curious to have never owned any livestock in our adult lives and now in our fifties we are raising Nigerian Dwarf Goats and planning on showing them. Don lived for a while when he was a teenager on a dairy farm. He said that was a very demanding life style. I grew up in the country where we raised chickens, cows, pigs, and rabbits for food. We were discourage from playing with them and making them pets.

Anyway, I am very excited to have animals in my life that I can treat as pets and give my grandchildren the experiences that come with owning animals.
