The Goatherd Experience

So my cousin and her family (husband and two children) came to visit from Texas for the weekend. The kids wanted to see the goats and chickens. They also of course wanted to take a ride in the goat cart. Well, as you may have guessed, by the lack of posts, I haven't been working them because I've been really busy with band and school in general. (Two foreing languages this year! Hooray!) So Yesterday was the first time we got Lewis out in a couple of weeks and he had pretty much gone wild so dad had to catch him and then we had to get him all harnessed up.

It was great. Not only did he pull the two little kids while they sat in the cart's basket, he aslo pulled them while they were sitting on their dad's lap. That in itself was an interesting experience because of the weight. Dad had Lewis on the lead just incase he decided to bolt. I still think it was unneccesary because I was driving from the back of the cart. After everyone else had gone back to the house, dad and I drove Lewis around and through some reflectors that were in the yard. (We use the back of my aunt and uncle's house because it's a big, open, grassy field) I've started researching how to hook the boys up in tandem but I haven't found any resources. If you know of any, send me an e-mail at sign_language2000@yahoo.com
Thanks. I'll keep updating on what I find.
