A Photo a Day: My Daily Sustenance, Day 263

Recently I joined my daughter Alison, her daughter Charley and Charley's daughter Myah in visiting son Derek and his wife Margaret Ann.  Now whenever we visit, a trip to visit the goats is included.  The grain is judged to be a treat for them.  This particular day they were not hungry, but they love getting attention!   Myah is skittish when the goats "get taller" by putting their front hooves on the gate, so she throws the food at them rather than offering it on her hand.  Her mom is showing her how to do that in the photo below.
I took a slightly different path to go back to the house.  There I discovered how green my son is.  He has a rain barrel that collects the water from the barn roof.

He uses the collected rainwater to water his large garden.
