Gordon mentioned more than a few times that he wanted to have goats. I grumbled and thought one more thing to take care of was too much, but one day working at a local CSA, I was asked by a co-worker whether I might want some goats. "Well....I know my husband wants goats" I say. So sure enough within days we were putting up fence around our barn with our new friend Lucy who was so interested in selling her goats she helped us put the fence up! Soon Vanda, a Kinder goat and her lady-in waiting, Pepper, a dignified pygmy goat arrived. We had one lesson on milking and then, gulp, it was up to us...or should I say me. Somehow I got the hang of it a bit sooner than Gordon and soon we were in milk.
