Moving Day

Moving day 2009.

After months of planning, effort, and hard work our goat shed is finally ready for the girls. Today (Saturday) we will be moving the goats and sheep off their respective fields to live in the new shed area of the Audubon. Feel free to visit us at our new home! The new shed is located at the back of the long pasture parking lot near the visitor’s center. The proceeds from Farm Day in 2008 were used to buy lumber and other materials to create this mini-barn for all the girls. Moving the goats was easy- we just all took a wonderful hike down the trail with all 12 just going along, stopping here and there for a nibble.The trocuble started when we went to move the sheep! What a small catastrophe. Not very hard to imagine but.... of course they ran down Harbor Point Road. The bumper sticker holds true: "My Border Collie is smarter than your honor student..."  and your completely college educated  group of adults trying to move 9 sheep from point A to point B. We coulda used one at that moment.  We made it- and all of the animals dd what they do after a long hike, rest drink water, Felice was a tough and spunky little nugget. She is a great addition to the herd.
