Goat Barn

I’ve received a couple of emails requesting to see the progress on the goat barn. Apparently I’ve been remiss in my updates! We’re coming right along with it. Sunday is looking like the “big day”. And I can’t tell you how happy that makes me!

Because of our building inspector issues, we focused on half of it first – that would be the right half in this picture.

But once we got our “farm use” permit, we added the second half. Our neighbor “Mad Dog” has been helping Bernie with the second half all week. Now we have the entire building up, and they are putting in one of the windows in this picture.

The room the guys are working in is the area the goats will live in. I’m taking the picture from the feed storage and milking room in this picture goat barn

The next two days will be spent on finishing up the outside so weather can not get inside and shoveling in dirt to fill it to the bottom horizontal line in this picture:

Sunday is the big day. We’ll have our goat babies here and then Bernie will work on the roof, lean-to, and fencing in the paddock.

My friend Charlotte will go with me to get these goat babies. I’m excited to get them home. And I’m happy that such a good friend will accompany me.

Goat babies are wonderful. Good friends are nothing to sneeze at either :)

    Well you lucky dog! I hope Bernie likes goats, cuz he’ll have to hang out in the goat barn if he wants to see you this spring. :)
    You’ve got a good man, there. But you already know that.
    I expect lots of pictures of you and Charlotte’s road trip to get the babies.
