Nessie’s Experience

I got my paws on the computer before Harvey this evening.  It has been quite the experience since Sue Lani left me with Craig on June 30.   What an experience for a country dog. I grew up at Mesa, ID which is near Council out in the wide open spaces. It is very similar… Continue Reading

Back on line

Well it has been awhile since I have been online.  It has been hard to keep the computer battery  charged. Craig got a new laptop  in Oct (the other one died) but he did not get a second battery (I will make  sure he puts that on the list for this fall) and he is… Continue Reading

Last Day at the Tolt

We had a nice weekend. The sunny was shinning so the goats happy grazed on face of the dam and Craig and I took a trip around the lake. Craig rode his bike and I trotted along behind. We made a couple of stops for me to cool off and Craig to have lunch. The… Continue Reading

Back at the Tolt

    On Wednesday I helped Craig gather the goats off the hill at Fort Ward Park. It was a steep slope and a few of the goats tried to hide at the top of the slope, but we found them all. Once the goats were loaded Craig went up and down the slope a… Continue Reading

Quick trip to Quincy

On Friday Craig had a visit from Betsey and Bob, friends who live close to Des Moines.  They brought pizza and the plan was to eat next to the tennis courts, but  it was raining. Since it is not very fun eating out in the rain, it was decided to take Craig to their house… Continue Reading

Back in Western WA

After a nice visit to Dayton we moved over to the west side, or is that wet side.  On Tuesday Craig with my help (of course) loaded up the goats and equipment and headed across WA to Des Moines. It was a nice drive until we were approaching the 405 South exit off of I-90,… Continue Reading

On the Road!

Yes, we did make it on the road on Saturday, May 11 thanks to friends.  It was quite a convoy. Craig borrowed a friend’s diesel truck which pulled the big trailer with most of the goats, Sue Lani drove our pickup with the little trailer loaded with all the equipment, Tom Dobson loaded 34-40 goats in… Continue Reading

Project list

The project list is getting shorter which is good since we will be heading back out into the field next weed. We will be headed to Dayton, WA to work on the levees for Columbia County. Craig is plugging away at his project list.  Today I got the opportunity to chase ground squirrels as Craig… Continue Reading
