Yes, Jerry's brought them back into our lives. But that's all right. They'll eat the hay we didn't sell last year and keep the weeds down. We also found a new home for Stan the goat. He'll be happier with the neighbor's sheep and horses. It's the same neighbor who took Henry our pony mule in the day after we got Stan as a pal for him. Unknown to us, Henry didn't like goats so he traveled seven miles, crossed the river and made his way up the ravines to his new home. Sometimes the best of plans just don't work out and Henry took things into his own hands and found the neighbor with horses. This time, the neighbor delivered our cows and they took Stan home with them. I called today and he's happy. A fine outcome indeed. But I miss the old goat. Who would have thought? Sometimes getting what we wish for is a surprise.
