We're not THAT far... Only a couple hours 
I'll just hang onto it for you and it you can send me boarding fees L. How about eh... $300 month.. that should just about cover my goat buying habit.

Hey, why don't I remember where you live? And you know I am just a couple hours a way. I have a bad memory for stuff like that you will need to remind me.

I'm in the eastern panhandle of WV. Unless you are down by Danville or over past Richmond, then it's only a couple hours and in goat buying trips, in my book anything less than 6 each way is reported to the husband as "only a couple hours away".

btw She was trying to convince me this morning that she was in labor or had kidded. Everybody else was waiting by the feeder and she's in the barn bellowing. RUN into the barn. She's just lookin at me. ... Apparently she didn't want to get dripped on as she exited the barn this morning.

We live on the west side of virgnia,in the valley. so we are quit close. And an 8 or 10 hour drive for us isn't all that out of the normal range. We went all the way through west virgnia last fall almost to the Ohio, 5 hours each way, to get a new buck. And this summer we went to Ohio, it was an 8 hour drive one way. And we have a trip planned to Indiana on the 17th to get a new buck. 10 hour drive one way. I guess my husband and I just enjoy the drive and time to visit with each other. Gas is kind of pricey these days. I think our last trip ran around 400 or $500 just for gas and hotel bills, not to mention the cost of the animals.
AFter this trip we shouldn't need any for a while, we were working on adding some higher end full-bloods to the herd. We have mostly percentages right now. We were just wanting to try a few better quality and see how it works out, may be a total waste of money and time.
Most of our herd is boer/nubian right now for meat and show whethers. We have been pretty happy with them. We were at the tri-county fair this summer for the 4H FFA sale, do you go to that fair?

p.s. It'd take more than a nilla wafer for me to let anyone take a pic of my hooha too.
That was great. I think that she will have two beautiful babies in March!
