Good Morning Farm

As we all slumber peacefully in our beds, the phone rings. Our neighbor heading in to open her little shop for breakfast informs us that our herd of Goats are taking up the road way. Geeez! Don't goats ever sleep in??? So, We get Jen and Michael up and off they go to herd them back to their pasture. Of course there's always that one that wants to do its own thing.  I look out the window and there she goes running past the pasture and on up the hill.  Gary was commentating the whole thing to me, OPE! Jen sees her and she's on it! He gets in the truck to go and help out because who wants to run up and down our steep Missouri hills at 5:30 in the morning? Without having had morning coffee!  Finally, they're all back in the pasture, Jen and Michael turn to leave and the goats are like, "OH! We're going again!"  No, no we are not. LOL  They ended up being shut into a smaller pasture until we get the fence fixed later today. (Thank you spring flooding) In all that commotion the cattle had lined up along the fence of their pasture with plenty to "say" too. :) Gary decided to just go ahead and move them  since they were all right there watching the goat action, he opened the gate and off they went all in a row to the other pasture. (They know the drill) The horses ran in from their pasture up by the barn and lined up at their feed bowls I guess they thought they needed breakfast now too. I love our Farm and all of its inhabitants.  Missouri is so picturesque and so is our farm.  Everything is so nature inspired and I never tire of watching it. We are blessed and I never forget it not even for a day. Hmm. with the look on Wally's face one might believe this early morning mutiny was planned.
