MEET OUR NEW AND ADORABLE LAWNMOWERS...

Meet the KIDZ...we call them Billy-Tom and Nanny-Jo and they will have lots to do at the new 'ranch'.

These are "minature" goats, won't get much bigger than they are now, and they have been 'bleating' a lot today since they were just separated from their Mama.

They're brother and sister and there will be plenty of berry bushes for them to enjoy and lots of lawn to mow.

One thing about Oregon...you have no problem getting things to grow...so you spend 'gardening time' beating it back instead. Everything grows, and it grows fast.

We needed to even the odds a little, and we hope that Billy-Tom and Nanny-Jo will help do exactly that! Now we just need a good safe area for our little critters to work...so Papa has to decide exactly where that will be.

Right now, they're in their 'traveling cage' on our back deck as we didn't expect to get them this soon, and after they were out for quite awhile, they didn't like having to return to their condo...so they let us hear about it loud and clear.

In fact, they were so loud that our 94 year old half deaf Aunt Faye gave them a growl...something like "SHAAADUP" I believe.

Allen and I will be like Eddie Albert and Eva Gabor in Green Acres, but learning something new everyday keeps you young, doesn't it? I think we are going to look for a 'pig' next.

This adventure is gonna be FUNNY ONE, I fear.
