Woke up this morning to a good four or five inches of snow on the ground. This was the view off my balcony upon rising.
The kids have been having a glorious time playing in the snow. I kept little Violette inside last night and will probably do so again. I'm a bit protective of her since a polled goat is a relatively rare thing that can hopefully have polled babies.
I, of course, had to go out and get some photos of their amazing cuteness.
I wanted to get some good shots of Bridey and Goata for Anne and Erica. Goata is no problem and poses quite sedately. But Bridey is forever in motion. Running, jumping and twirling like a little dancer. And for some reason she felt that the camera's appearance meant it a perfect time to dominance hump her big brother.
Enjoy your Sunday. Hugs to all.
I'd love to play with them...they look like a lot of fun.
(Remind me, should this come to actual fruition, to take some Claritin first.)
Spray foam is great for a lot of things, but not much so for mice, unless you ball up some screen and spray it in and over it. And spray foam needs to be painted if exposed to the environment much. But it’s great for the things I use it for.
I’ve talked about making your own styrofoam glue and filler before, but maybe before you started reading my blog.
Take a few ounces of gas and melt styrofoam in it until you have a ball of glue. It’s the best waterproof glue you can find. Don’t worry because you use gas, it’s as safe as using oil based paints and dries soon.
To make a really good filler work sawdust into it. It’s a great way to make good use of styrofoam and have a filler that is better than anything you can buy, the mice won’t get through it.
As for my stalkers, it’s just a few sick christians that I’ve called idiots. LOL ... Maybe I’ll address that some when I post tomorrow.
Can you sell me some goat fudge? I didn't see a link where I can buy some.
But I don't use the Dap latex crap. Cuz it really is crap.
They bring tears to my eyes.
How lucky you are.
I love your Mom's site, BBM! I've been trying to find a local church or somewhere that still does shape notes.
My funeral plan is to have a shape note choir (in SC) sing "I'll Fly Away" and (from CM) "I Don't Care to Stay Too Long" and nothing else. Our family chapel has stood since 1789 and has a balcony for the slaves, high windows and no electricity.Man, I hope I die in the crisp Blue Ridge autumn...
So Rosie, when you find that shape note choir, let me know, I'll be there directly. Nothing makes my soul fly like a shape note Gospel Sing.
Your family chapel sounds much like the old Church of the Cross in Bluffton where I was confirmed. It also has the slave balcony and is in the gothic revival style.
