This is a small collection of pictures from when I was out at the barn during the PAX snow storm. Admittedly this is not the worst part of the storm, as I was hardly in the mood to take too many photos - the worse it got the more it was a matter of chores and is everybody okay.
In this one the goats definitely realize it has started snowing.
This is Lucky Star. She was born in negative 8 degrees. With her little coat (old sweater sleeve) she is marching on...
This one's color is "blue". Against the snow you can really see the shades. Her father is from Texas. Doesn't it look as if she is ready to look up some paternal relatives.
Here is another girl from the same sire, Ellwood STAG. However, this is a much more silly approach to the snow - with the uni-brow and beard. I am sure some face-planting into a snow bank has just occurred! :)
We had to dig a trench to their water trough -- the one that reaches electricity so it can have a defroster running all the time. We dug this path out over and over and the snow kept falling.
Meanwhile, inside the barn the kids are playing. They say, "go on Mom, get a drink out there, I'll have some warm milk when you get in!!"
I kind of wish these photos were a little more clear. I need to work on my photography in motion. They are so cute - hopping all around, playing king of the step, bewildering the chickens behind them. Stay warm and have fun baby goats!
