2009 Goat Roast & Picnic

Mother Nature smiled upon us again for the annual goat roast & picnic. Despite a 40% chance of rain, the day was gorgeous and family & friends descended upon the farm to feast and share each others company.

My brother-in-law, Glen got to drive the big tractor and the Millers' son, Kai got to 'drive' my little tractor.

As always, every hung out visiting, eating, drinking and being merry.
Jess brought out Big Andy for 'pony' rides.
And Lucky the Pig was in all his glory with the kids.

This was the first time in a few years my family was all together so we took a picture together.
Charles wanted the pork cheeks and he got them.
Judy & Jonas and the Hursts came over the mountain to share in the festivities.




One of our farmers market managers, Luke, trekked up from DC for the day.

Spud is smiling because he's the only one not shucking corn.
