Started out with a fright. I looked out the window and saw the big gate to the uncompleted section open, and I only saw two goats. I didn’t see Hermione. I panicked. I called out to Matt and grabbed shoes and ran outside.
ONLY then did I realize that I saw the wrong set of gates from that window. Everyone was fine. I had no idea how we would have gotten her back when we still can’t even touch her.
Today was the first day we didn’t spend any time working in the enclosure, since they have been home with us. We had loads of errands to run, and were gone most of the day.
We got home just a little while ago, and I don’t know if they just wanted grain pellets or they were happy to see us, but they started bleating when we got out of the car. It was music to my ears.
They didn’t move far away when we cleaned their stall out and put out fresh food and water. They stayed only a few feet away. Watched us and seemed to be engaged in what we were doing.
I think it is progress. I hope it is progress.
