LOL, we went to a dinner for a mission church out here, Greek. It was great! Crab and spaghetti.

And terrific entertainment.

Anyway, they had these bowls of pretzels on all the tables and after it was all over, we just naturally started helping to clean up. Like you do in Orthodox church halls.

I asked if I could have the pretzels that were leftover after I had dumped a few bowls, for our goats. And suddenly I was surrounded by everyone there.
"You have goats?" They were all brimming with huge smiles.

Now usually, you have to understand, people think we are hoosiers with a goat on top of the car or something. But always in Greek churches, we get lots of smiles on that one.

Crab and spaghetti?! What kind of Greeks do they have out West?

As for goats, they are among the most noble of beasts; brave and affectionate at the same time. They give us milk and wool and are real good to eat in a stew, nice and lean!
