Well, it was a sad day today… we had a death in the family.

 

Our ‘yard maintenance man’, ‘Zeke’, has been in really poor health lately, and today he was in so much pain and suffering, I had to get the old shotgun out and end his suffering.  I was really attached to Zeke, and it was hard to put him down, but I just couldn’t bear to let him suffer any longer.  He’s been with us since he was just a baby.  He was almost 2 years old.

 

His brother “Levi” died last year of multiple bee stings while I was at District PowWow.  (He tried to eat a bee’s nest and the bee’s didn’t appreciate him eating them out of house and home).  Zeke & Levi are now buried side by side in the back yard (woods).

 

Zeke did a great job keeping the weeds down all around our little forest, and the neighbors always stopped to watch him work when he was out front ‘weeding’ the ‘fertilizing’ the front woods.

 

Parson.

 

PS:  In case you didn’t figure it out, Zeke & Levi were our family goats…
