yesterday morning i went to tap-dancing class, and there were baby goats in a box! they were born the night before; who knew that goats would be born looking so adorable right away? i’m not entirely sure why the lady brought them to class; they weren’t actually IN the class, tap-dancing, but the woman sat out in the lobby with them. she said they were good now, but soon they’d be jumping all over the place like crazy, which is what you’d expect from a goat.
SO CUTE. mollie might like a pet goat, but i’m pretty sure they’d traumatize poor Winnie.
this is what the lake looked like on monday, with the broken-up ice all sparkly.
the lovely flower arrangement kevin got me for valentine’s day. i’m happy to say that yesterday i finished every last big of valentine’s day candy he gave me. whew.
monday, just a few little bits of snow. today the snow is really mostly gone.
suddenly the swans have gone, but i’d brought popcorn down for them. when i got there some ducks swam towards me, but then they kept turning back away, obviously afraid.
winnie made his first foray into the yard since winter began, but he was deterred by the huge amount of mud in the yard. that’s as far as he got on monday.
when i went back up to the house, the ducks finally swooped in and gobbled up the popcorn.
here’s one more picture of the white pelicans, who were out there in a clump on monday. i haven’t seen them since.
ok then,
mrs. warm spring morning in february hughes.
