1. I used to have pygmy goats. They'd greet me when I got home from work and I'd pick an apple off

one of my trees, spread some peanut butter on it and feed it to them. I had a dutch door as my front door and when I left the top part open they'd jump on the bottom of the door for balance and watch me in the house. One night, during a bad storm, another neighbor's horse got loose and he and the goats spent the night together. Too many coyotes and mountain lions to have goats now. Sad.
