I only laughed at this because I've had goats and don't have the room for extra animals that need double extra fencing. Being why (you already know) I no longer have goats.Fences. Goats
Coffee anyone ?

At least these will stay where you put them, they don't eat much, and they won't run for a shed everytime they get a drop of rain on them....

I’m awake way too early. Coffee is ready and it’s good. I’m sore all over, tired, really got a workout yesterday until 1:30. And it was hot. Ever sweat so much, even with guzzling water and lemonade, there’s not enough moisture left in your body to even go pee? That was me yesterday.
@Ridgetop let me know what day your package will arrive. No gas powered devices and no battery powered ones either? Not a problem for you, you have sheep!
@Margali that is a cute picture. That’s a lawn ornament that I’ll never have because the real ones would eat it.
Could I interest you in some VERY well behaved sheep?

Up, having coffee...hope I awaken soon. 
Yesterday, repairs being made...I'm IN THE FIELD...and 2 of 3 done, well finished two & moving to 3, the smallest. Goats had come in and were grazing....suddenly, one bellies out the little hole
just as suddenly, 6 more follow!!!!. And I do mean, on their knees to scoot thru -- a spot you would THINK they could not fit thru!!
Out...cross the dirt drive, down the 6' deep gravel ditch, up onto RR track, into ditch on other side, up in neighbors cotton field
. I CLIMB my fence and follow in hot pursuit, cussing all the way! Round them up -- up & down ditches, and back to said hole, which they bellied thru --- then wandered on off for more grass, like nothing had just happened. 
I'm hot, slower than they and well beyond patient at this point. An old, breathing hard, if a gun in hand I'd shoot you, mad woman! 
Moved tractor in front of said escape, put up new section of fence and moved on. Later I watch them looking for the disappeared hole! Ya know, putting up all the new fence was easier! Of course, they weren't THERE to watch.

Hahahaha! That is so freaking FUNNY!!! Maybe not to you, but is to me! I have a mental picture of that and it’s better than a funny tv sitcom. 
Ready for sheep yet? I never have those kind of adventures. You might get bored…..

Down, up in the ditch, over the RR tracks, down the ditch, up the other side, that’s a snap for a woman in her PRIME!!!
You are in darn good physical condition, wanna join me on the roof?

Up at 7am just in time for the severe weather to hit. Relaxing and watching the rain instead of working on projects. So sad...
