    Morning Teri,


    Maybe Ingrid is right , we should be checking up trees. I'm guessing Deuce must be happy roaming on his own in the yard.


    Loved your pictures of the baby goats. Our goats grew into big boys and boy did they get hard to handle. We could put leads on them and shift them around for getting new grass but they were really strong, even my dh looked like he was being dragged around by two big bad boys. The did love their cuddles still.

    Ingrid - the videos are terrific. Was hilarious watching the goats jump out of the tree! Maybe Deuce is hanging out in the trees with some new found friends.


    Teri - wishing you a restful evening. Sweet dreams......zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz......

    Evening Teri!! I finally got home again after celebrating GS 16th birthday in the city yesterday (18th)......I am exhausted!


    Today was busy also as I had to pick up my Pictures from the framer and deliver them to the gallery........so now I just sit back and wait and see if others like my work........lol.


    That cuppa and cookies sounds like the go, mind if I join in?


    Hope you night has been a restful one.


    Love n hugs. Chrissy

    Aw to the sweet baby goats, LOVE them, Teri!!!! Someone on the thread asked about the desert animals here eating dry bushes, etc - I saw a camel chow down on a bush that looked dead to me, so not sure.... I don't know how these animals survive here, it looks like the surface of the moon (and feels like the surface of the sun!) Many locals put out water which helps and it has been raining here this week. Water here is free thanks to the government, but it's desalinated - so brings along other issues like kidney stones and trashing the whites in your laundry...a story for another day! Ah the military life!

    Inky, I loved the videos! I wonder just how those goats got up into that tree to begin with!!!


    Teri, I hope you had a comfortable night and that you find a couple of things to laugh at today. Certainly those goats jumping out of the tree gave me a belly laugh!

    All you "Deuce Detectives" out there are not going to believe this. My friend Richard came over last night and said that they chose his property to film part of a major movie on. The movie is called "Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail" and stars Reese Witherspoon. It's a true story based on the life of Cheryl Strayed who had, among other things, just lost her mother to BC 4 years before. Here's a link:


    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2472174/Reese-Witherspoon-goes-Wild-new-film.html


    It will be out later this year. The part that was filmed on his property is when she (Reese/Strayed) is crossing from California into Oregon. They needed a downward sloping pasture with some cows in it and Richard had the perfect pasture for them to use. He said one of their producers spotted it while driving by one day when they had been filming another scene nearby.


    Anyway, when the movie comes out we all need to watch it, especially the scene when she's crossing from CA into OR, and see if we can catch any glimpses of Deuce. The pasture is surrounded by trees so he could be hiding in the trees trying to get his 15 minutes of fame. Who knows?


    Good luck to you all in spotting that darn goat and I hope you're all having a low or pain free day today!


    Teri

    WOW, Teri!!!! That is awesome! We must watch carefully - that Deuce is becoming the world's expert recluse!


    I thought of Deuce and you today while I was attending a "green smoothies" workshop. They were so delicious, and I was thinking that many of the ingredients would be the preferred food of that wandering goat - greens like kale, spinach, etc. Blended with water, pineapple, banana, and some other fruit that I cannot remember, and it was so refreshing - you could not tell there was spinach in it!!! Tasted very tropical fruity! And another was made with spinach, cherries, cocao powder (could also use cocoa powder), cinnamon, and banana. Very chocolaty, and looked like a chocolate drink - not green at all. I am thinking if I served these in a punch bowl and didn't tell my family what was in them, they would think they were some of the best fruit punches! Not a lot of protein, but lots of veggies, fruits, antioxidants, and all those other nutrients! Which is probably why goats seem so lively - they get such a diverse diet it just HAS to give them high energy!


    How is that book coming? Are you up to doing any art? Gentle hugs, hope you are having more good moments than bad.

    Teri,


    Oh-my-gosh! I knew Deuce-goat would be a star!!!! Your posts always make me so happy... and it's nice to see you posting so often too:) Now I can't wait for the movie, and Deuce's debut! The world works in mysterious ways, doesn't it?

    That Deuce is smarter than all of us. He's just hanging out waiting for his brush with fame. It would be hilarious if he just wandered into the scene while it was being filmed.

    good morning Teri,


    Sorry i haven't been back for a while. I went to Dublin to visit my family (definitely no goats there, brown or otherwise!) and then hit the ground running with appointments when I arrived home.


    It's really getting cold here, -3 degrees this morning, so I think I'll be staying in beside the fire!


    Hope you have a good day, I'll be thinking of you.

    How exciting to know that Deuce may become a star. We can all say "We knew him (well knew of him) when........" Can't wait to see the movie and keep my eyes peeled for a sighting.


    Hope today brings you sunshine, happiness and calm Teri.

    Deuce photobomb.....cool! Hope you are enjoying your morning, Teri. It finally rained last night, here on the southern coast of California. I think most of us thought it never would rain again. It's a nice morning to stay in my flannel pjs and slippers and have a cup of coffee! Hope you are doing the same!

    I will definitely be sure to see the movie! I would be thrilled to see a certain goat skipping his way through a pasture from Oregon to California! Amazing! Hope all is ok Teri. Thinking of you.

    Teri,


    The baby goat pictures are just sooo cute. Thank you. I hope you are doing exactly what you need to and want to and are pain free. Cold rainy AM here in Boston, cup of coffee and reading posts. Perfect despite the weather!


    Be well

    Looking out my window this morning, the colors range from subtle to luminescent...leaves on the ground, leaves clinging to the trees, rain adding sparkles and splashes here and there, the sky very heavy. Looks like a watercolor kind of day. Well, if I can't paint, I can appreciate.


    Thinking of you, Teri, and hoping you are having a good enough day, whatever weather is visiting your little nook in the world.

    Nothing real exciting to add today, but dropping by to send well wishes to Teri, Deuce, and all the rest of the crew. Gray and drizzly here, but not cold - perfect for having a cup of tea and watching the last of fall's colors contrast with the gray sky.

    I so enjoy hearing about Deuce's excursions (where he might be, that is) on this board! I also enjoy hearing about the weather in other parts of the world!! Some of us drink tea while others drink coffee or cocoa on a cold morning! We all seem to enjoy spending time in our homes on these cold mornings!!


    Hope everyone is having a wonderful, blessed day!! It's nice and pleasant near the east coast in North Carolina!! It's supposed to get cold again this weekend though!! BRRRR!!!

    Afternoon Teri!!! The weather has turned very cool here today, a good day for sitting, creating and letting the imagination run free...........just like our friend Deuce. That boy will one day realize that no goat is an island and he does need the comfort of the herd.


    Hoping your day is a pleasant one and your night a restful one.


    Love n hugs. Chrissy

    Hi Terry


    From beautiful frosty UK. The autumn (fall) is so beautiful this year. Still no sign of Deuce, but now I know why he plans on becoming more famous than he already is lol.


    Take care hugs Mara. X
