ramshackle

While the ninja girl and I were on an errand yesterday, this goat climbed up onto something in the center of its little prison and called to us with sad-sounding mews. We wished we could take it home with us.

In front of it, empty soda bottles lie collapsed around a traffic cone, on top of which are two inverted plastic cups.

a goat

Over on a ways is a discarded Christmas tree, a chair, and baby stroller, and other stuff.

odds and ends

It is one of B-town's more Winter Bone-like corners.

Five or six! Wonderful. You must have had a fair amount of space.

At one time we lived on eight acres of steep Welsh hillside. The land came complete with ruined cottage which we gradually made habitable. Unlike the little one in your photos, our girls had their own shed which, in winter especially, was often cosier than our cottage.

I was imagining what it would be like to have a little goat in the house--they say you can housetrain them!

(But most certainly it would be happier out in fields, provided it had shelter.)

That would make for interesting times.
