Ahhhhhh Spring...

We got home last night and most of the snow was gone. It was sloppy and muddy but the sky was blue, the birds were singing their little guts out, the grass is beginning to green, all the muddy animals were peacefully eating their dinner.


Big happy sigh.


It feels like we've turned the corner. Yeah, we may still get more snow storms but it's not the bitter cold or gloom of winter... somehow it seems more mild, as if we are seeing the light in the tunnel with the hard, desolate, gloom of winter.



I'm having FARLEY (Farley = fans of Marley) stickers printed (why? to plaster across our chests of course!) ... and you all know that means our favorite comedian from Maine is in Denver this weekend. Comedy Works called and offered us special discounted tickets since we faithfully trek to the big city each time Bob shows up.


We rounded up 6 other people for the 10pm Friday night show of Bob Marley! Looking forward to some deep belly laughs with good friends...

ENJOY!! I am finally starting to see Spring here too!! I am still a little shell shocked from this last winter, and have to keep telling myself...it will be here ..it will be here. Mud is less, the Sun is shining and I think I even had a lost memory of a good thunderstorm ( something I absolutely LOVE). AHHHH...the rumble of thunder on the horizon sitting with my feet up on the deck with an ice cold beverage in one hand and eyes to the sky. YUP...I need my fix!!

Wow being loyal pays off huh.

I had a goat question for you. What is the average life expectancy of a goat?

DebH - I'm so glad there are signs o' spring!! Is it helping? I was sort of amazed how much the sun and green chased away my brain bugs...

Angie - in this instance it did! I don't know personally cuz my oldest doe is 8 but I've been told around 12 yrs give or take a few. Are you going to get a goatie? :)
