New Day Dawning

It's goat time again. I want to take this opportunity to say WHEW. It's been an amazing past two years - personally and professionally. I have a new thriving business, and a new populated farm! Well, let's just say the goats like it. We are preparing for the 2011 show season, and like many other things, we are starting with a good foundation and building on it. That's what I did with my business and now we have Soldiering On and a concurrent private practice up and going. That's what we did with a foreclosed house that we purchased, and we are really close to having it remodeled and ready to move into.

The goat "business" was no different. We wanted to step back this year and re-evaluate where we had been and where we are going. That's why we have made this an important investment and learning year. We invested in our show barn - awesome!!! And, we are starting out with some fundamentally solid goats and trying different things with them to see what results we get. It is scary because we want success, of course. But, we want to work our project until we know more about what we are doing. Anyone can buy results or even have their mom or dad produce the results. We want to learn them (with the help of our coaches and consultants) so that we can be better goat owners and keepers. Winning will come if we develop our skills and knowledge. At least, that's the idea!

Tonight the boys were acting frisky. We got an idea to make one of our pallets into an A-frame stand. They jumped and started playing on it immediately. See for yourself!
