Walking My Baby Back Home

During our fascinating history morning in the Maryland countryside today we came upon this fellow walker. I was taken with his odd dog on the left...and then realized he was walking his goat, along with the two dogs. Yes, folks, that is a goat out for a walk. 

I'm home from our wonderful blog-friends weekend in Maryland. The house is too quiet. I want to be back in Marydon and Harold's warm and lovely house, visiting with them and dear Sherry. Just about this time we would be chuckling at our photos, recalling the beautiful tea and luncheon yesterday and our great day at Arlington National Cemetery today. It may have been a nippy April day, but our hearts were warm. 

Buttercup's blessings are overflowing. Thank you Marydon and Harold for the warmest hospitality imaginable, Sherry for your smiles, friendship and laughter and my cowgirl necklace and my new blogger friends, what lovely women. This is a weekend I will cherish for a long time. Of course, there will be pictures!

Sounds like an awesome weekend! And the goat ... we have a walking path with many unusual sights but I have yet to see a goat on it. I think I would have started bursting out laughing.

Glad you had a wonderful trip,
Kristen

Oh yes he has a goat too. I thought it was a dog. Cool guy

I wonder if he was a professional dog-walker. The goat is adorable but where would he live?

Oh my gosh - a man walking a goat - now doesn't that beat all?

No, your trip meeting your blogger friends beat all.

That was so exciting. Wish I could have come too! Seems like you had a great time.

Can't wait for the pictures.
