What did the doctor say when a mini came
 in complaining about a sore throat? 
"I know what's wrong here; 
you're just a little hoarse!"

Coffee Discovered by a GOAT?


Yup you heard right, coffee was first discovered by a goat! The myth is a young Ethiopian goat herder by the name of Kaldi in the 9th-century noticed his goats acting strange, that they became more energetic, and began to dance when they ate the cherries from the coffee tree, so he tried it for himself. His exhilaration prompted him to bring the berries to a holy man in a nearby monastery, but the holy man disapproved of their use and threw them into a fire, from which an enticing aroma billowed. The roasted beans were quickly raked from the embers, ground up, and dissolved in hot water, yielding the world's first cup of coffee.

The Country Visits the City!


Most people come to visit in cars or trucks, but 
some people  saddle up and visit on horseback!  


Hank and Katerina

Splash is happy to rest in the shade with Patti, his driver.  


James makes sure that Splash gets a snack before moving on...


Katerina riding Lucy!  


Hey, there is a cowboy and a horse out on the lawn.  


Patti skillfully drives Splash down our 
steep driveway...



He runs on a pellets, hay, and lots of TLC!
