Yay on your test! Always nice to have a good test day!

Glad you got your certificates. How long did it take for the exams? Last time we had to get certificates I think we only had like 10 goats going (out of state show) and it was pretty quick.
Do you need more than just a regular Health certificate?

So Rocky is better, but he looks like a bag of bones. Vet said he might lose 30% of his body weight. I don't even want to post a picture he looks so skinny.
Pinkeye has abated. Only Cookie's eye is still clouded and it is awful. Have been giving her banamine too because it was swollen.
We think that she may have had it first and we just didn't see it and it went longer with no treatment. But, she is acting fine.
Still have her quarantined, but I don't think she is contagious any more.

Getting ready or the ADGA National Show. Rachel and I are going to leave late Friday night/early Saturday morning. Not looking forward to an overnight drive, haven't done that in a while.
Not really excited, but I guess I'm doing it for the team
Found out there is a casino in Columbus though ;)

How far is the drive?

We drove through Columbus earlier this year. Wasn't bad at all. I bet the goats will love being in the A/C during their travel.

Safe travels!

Is Maurine going?

Maurine is going, but she has to be at the farmer's market Saturday.
So, I'm going to head up with Rachel and the goats, Rachel has to check in by 1pm Saturday. Maurine will head up after the market is over Saturday. Then, I'm going to stay for the Nigerians and head back home on Tuesday. They will have to stay the rest of the week.

Google says it's 8 hours, so not too bad.
