I feel so sad about this next bit ... remember his prized goat Charlie ~ well - someone stole him about a year ago - that broke both our hearts. Charlie was his pet ... really a special Rammy Goat.

So - he replaced Charlie with a next prized Ram Goat ~ see Joshua below:

This Rammy had some wonderful unique qualities ~ made him very special in many ways as well ... very much a part of our Yard.

Well - a couple days after I returned to Minneapolis, Bim called with the sad news that there was a sudden death in the family ... a young woman - completely unexpected.

So - in usual fashion everyone in the family pulls together ... and it just made sense for him to offer up Joshua to the big cook pot.
