Garebear & Goats
For anyone not familiar with King George County, picture 5 schools, 4 stoplights, 3 high school graduates (Ha ha!), 2 Food Lions, and 1 little boy with a dream to raise goats. Well, Garrett had a ball the whole 3 months that we entertained goats in our backyard. He participated in the 4-H Show back in May and even earned a 2nd place finish for Sasha in the meat category (which means, in the event she ever becomes a gyro, her meat will be judged by a butcher to be distributed quite evenly over her body). Garrett's 2 goats were bought by Fredericksburg Auto Auction, who resold them to a farm. So for now, I can honestly tell my son that his goats are frolicking about in fields of clover.
(I swear, that goat looks like she's smiling at me).
