My son has been volunteering at a local farm, and it makes him appreciate what hard work is all about. Giving the goats that lovely bale of hay makes me think of you all sharing a pot of icecream together at the end of a hard day.

But that young man should get a medal! one of the Good Teens! I've had a few of them in my life, and they're a blessing.<br /><br />Are the cherry branches toxic to goats?
