Clover really wants to give the boy a kiss; she just can't get close enough.
Juniper tries to have as much physical contact as possible - even if I am on the other side of the fence. I am hoping that this is intended as something like a hug - and not a hoof sandwich.
Sadie gets a better view of it all from up on the fence. She prefers to be higher up than the goats.
The cold air is moving in to the valley. Our run of spring-like weather has come to an end. Now we must hunker down and prepare for the unpleasantness of freezing temperatures. The barn floor has built up a nice deep straw bed. I've got to drag out the bucket de-icer and find a place to plug it in. The barn does get cold enough to freeze up the water buckets. John is now closing the storm windows in the house. We just topped off the oil tank. We have lots of hot chocolate, teas, and microwave popcorn. We also bought our first generator recently. I think that we are ready for winter. I hope we get some snow soon!
