Goats in the Hammock...

Advertised as "durable, highly resistant to mold and mildew" (no mention of goats!), our coated rope hammock has always been Mike's favorite spot for Sunday afternoon naps. However, since the goats came this spring, the hammock has remained in the garage. (I am still trying to find a stainless steel model, but no luck yet.) Today is the hottest day of summer so far, he drove seven hours yesterday, baled straw with his brother for four hours then still had the mowing to get done here. Today was a day for a nap! There was a slight breeze in the yard, so he decided to give it a try.

First the goats walked around under the hammock, sniffing his ears and pulling pieces of his shirt through the mesh. Then they got his shoelaces. Emerson started chewing through the rope, but Elliot knows a good thing when he sees it. It's 95 degrees in the shade...(which feels like 107 with a hot goat on your lap!)
