Day 91

     Went to a Hindu temple today. It was just absolutely gorgeous. I played with the llamas while peacocks strutted the grounds around beautiful statues and parrots talked from their cages. I have been around peacocks before (at the zoo) but I don't ever think I heard them call out. Now I know where they got the inspiration for the bird Kevin in the movie UP. For whatever reason, I wasn't really thinking, and instead of taking a beautiful image (which I am kicking myself for at this moment, realizing how cool my idea was) I kind of went for the cliche peafowl pictures. They are beautiful birds, so almost every picture possible of them has been taken. Almost. And I could've been the one to take the new one. Next time I happen to run into a peacock on a farm, I will do my best.

Day 70

     Went to a goat farm today. Drew blood, de-liced and labeled 207 goats. A lot of work, and got dirt (and a little blood) all over me. But it was a blast. Goats are so fun. I also played with goats that were only a day old.
     I love the little run-down farms. I used to think they were ugly, but now I realize that they are so much cuter than the nice up kept ones. There is just so much more to look at. Brownie points to whoever can name everything in this picture. So many beautiful little farm buildings here.
