The local goat herder brought his little flock over to the lot next door for some lunchtime browsing. There wasn't much on the menu since we had the area cleaned up before Easter. But a few tasty tidbits remained for their enjoyment. The herder also has a dog whose job it is to keep these goats in line, not letting them wander away into some other field. The dog got into a barking-bleating match with one of the bigger goats. The goat won. He nipped at the dog who backed right off and decided he was better off in the shade. The goat returned to his lunch.
For you opera lovers out there, tomorrow's treat is La Traviata. Among the cast is the superb Thomas Hampson who, in his younger days sang Alfredo. In tomorrow's production he is singing Alfredo's father. A sure sign of a long and illustrious career.

Goats are amazing and you are welcome to our fog until we have one of our infrequent hot spells at which time I'll ask for it back. Maybe it's from the Iceland volcano? I just picked up The Uncommon Reader at the Library ~ thanks for the rec, dear Fevered Brain.
