We enjoyed the visit with all the little ones, as did they. We didn't do anything really special this time, just daily visits to the neighborhood pool and occasional rides in the golf cart. It's these simple pleasures that seem to give them the most joy. Oh, yes, we spent an afternoon at Uncle Donald's Farm, a local farm where the kids can interact with the animals, milk a goat, feed the cattle, and in general have a great time. As a city boy who never had the benefit of living on a farm, I always enjoy taking the little ones there. It also makes me thankful that my ancestors gave up on the farming business when they left Ireland and came to America.
Here are some photos...
Looking apprehensive...Is Papa really going to sell us?
Carlos milking a nanny goat
Eddie and Pedro feeding a little kid
Granddaughter Camilla, daughter Erin, and goat
Petting a bunny
A pot-bellied pig looking...well, rather piggish
It was indeed a fine day and even I managed to slip into a photo, taken by my son-in-law...
Waiting for the hayride to begin
Being is truly good. God bless all creatures, great and small...
