Visiting Walkers
Asher is home with a dog sitter and we are up in Princeton visiting George and Anneliese and getting a chance to spend some time sharing fencing chores, good food, and fun games.
Cattle grazing is on some leased land where temporary fencing is installed to allow moving the herd frequently for maximum health of land and animals. We tagged along and helped a little to run a new line encircling a fresh plot of grass.

We got a close look at what weed control via goats looks like.
I was most impressed by the way the goats tip down tall young saplings so that others can reach the leaves which sets off a feeding frenzy.
In the evening after dinner with George’s parents, we were introduced to the yard game, Kubb.
The turf of the playing field provided a vivid example of the drought conditions area farmers are enduring.
Coping with weather extremes is not for the faint of heart.

Relative Something 
Quite a balancing act using goats for weed control – they will also destroy trees by ripping the bark off if left long enough…

You are speaking from experience, are you?

Kubb sounds like an interesting game and I would have loved to watch the Goats. I’ve never had “Kids”. It would be awesome to have one.

They are full of energy and occasionally call out like kids do! 🙂

Love you two so much, sorry we are so busy, but it fills me up just to see you for a bit.
