What did you do today?

[Taffy]

It was a sunny warm (56*) day here today.  I decided to build the dirt pile back up into a hill in the goat pen.  Opened the gate to the pen and all the goats came running out - as usual.  They headed straight for the row of arborvitae.  While they were munching arborvitae I began using the tractor bucket to scoop up the dirt and build up the hill.  I'd only been at it about 5 minutes when they decided they needed to supervise!  Of course they were "hoof on" supervisors and I had to maneuver around them upon occasion!  When I was done recreating the hill I pulled the arborvitae that was mostly dead and put it in their pen.  I figured they'd eat the green part first.  Nope.  They began stripping the bark!  It must be tasty!  We all went for a walk out to our favorite corner of the west hay field.  I think they were enjoying the weather, too.  There was a lot of snorting (they scared themselves!), bucking, racing and antics going on!  I was able to hide behind a big fuel tank.  However, it only took a minute for them to begin calling and find me!  Here are a couple photos of the herd enjoying the arborvitae.
