Goats!! (Canada Agriculture Museum)

Kevin came up to Ottawa to visit recently, and unfortunately he came at a time when I was looking for someone to come to the Canada Agriculture Museum with me. He was very sweet and allowed me to drag him out to the museum for a day of watching me pet animals. I’m not kidding; the poor guy had to stand around while I talked and babied everything with fur.

 

Okay, maybe I’m being a little too harsh. I do think he might have had a bit of fun. We got to play on some sun energy collectors and play with beekeeping equipment. We were also on a crazed hunt for bread the whole time. For some reason we really anticipated being able to buy fresh loaves of bread. We trekked the whole property – trying not to step on small children at times – and only managed to find samples of raisin bread.

 

Our hunger lead us to a farmer’s stall right outside of the museum where we purchased some of the best strawberries I’ve ever tasted in my life (I usually hate strawberries). Although I can’t speak for Kevin, I think it was a good day adventure. Just put me in any situation where I get to interact with goats and I’ll be happy.

 
 

Just look at how happy I am. At this moment I was turning to Kevin and saying something along the lines of, “I want to keep it. Do you think we can steal it?” Retirement goal: tiny hobby farm with a couple of dorky goats.

  1. After exploring a number of the blog posts on your web page,
    I seriously like your technique of writing a blog. I bookmarked it to my bookmark webpage list and
    will be checking back in the near future. Please
    check out my website as well and tell me how you feel.

  2. I am extremely impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your weblog.
    Is this a paid theme or did you modify it yourself? Either way keep
    up the excellent quality writing, it is rare to see a nice
    blog like this one these days.

  3. Hello would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?
    I’m looking to start my own blog soon but I’m
    having a tough time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design and
    style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
    P.S Apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!

  4. First off I want to say fantastic blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.

    I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts before writing.
    I’ve had trouble clearing my mind in getting my ideas out.
    I do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are lost simply just trying to figure out how
    to begin. Any ideas or tips? Thanks!

  5. An outstanding share! I have just forwarded this onto a colleague
    who had been doing a little research on this.
    And he actually bought me lunch because I discovered it for him…

    lol. So let me reword this…. Thanks for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending some time to talk about this subject here on your website.

  6. I was suggested this web site by my cousin. I’m not sure whether
    this post is written by him as nobody else know such detailed about my difficulty.

    You are wonderful! Thanks!

  7. Howdy this is somewhat of off topic but I was
    wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
    I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding skills so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience.

    Any help would be enormously appreciated!

  8. Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to
    my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the
    shell to her ear and screamed. There was a
    hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never
    wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had
    to tell someone!

  9. You made some really good points there. I checked on the web to find
    out more about the issue and found most individuals will go along with your views on this website.

  10. Howdy! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from
    an established blog. Is it hard to set up your own blog?
    I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast.

    I’m thinking about setting up my own but I’m not sure
    where to begin. Do you have any tips or suggestions?
    With thanks
