Lone Star Hoofenanny April 5-7

[blackie's maiden]

Wish all interested parties from Texas could be here with us. The park people have been so good to us.
Nan has been working herself to a frazzle l am sure, tho she won't admit it ;-) , to help us 3 newbies learn to trim, saddle fit and educate a few curiosity seekers who breezed in. She was a big help on our poor Sprite who has been to H... and back this year and left him with a distaste for strangers and less cooperative with us. She had him settled down amazingly. And found a possible trouble spot on Frankie's foot. She gave us 3 a buggy ride behind Sputnik which is more fun than anyone should be allowed. My first time to drive a goat let alone any animal and Sputnik was very cooperative. Phil's fiddling was fun and festive as usual.

We didn't get to see much park although our location and lake view was super nice. The weather, darn, I was beginning to think Nan could do anything but apparently her magic touch isn't geared for weather control. Rain, rain, rain!

But thank you, Phil and Nan, for a very good and beneficial event. We are indebted. And, Kim, so nice to meet you and your goats.
