Benny Goat

Benny, Billy's brother, got his haircut today. I brought him in the apartment to make it a little easier on us, not him. It's still ghastly hot and humid out there, with thunderstorms forecast for today. The flies are out in force and we would have to spray the 25% DEET on us if we were to stay outside for any length of time. The ugly but effective fly strips are hanging here and there in the apartment. I have to check my coffee cup before drinking. Anyway, I don't think Benny was appreciative of us relieving him of his baby coat. His fleece is not as thick as Billy's, but then Benny didn't get a ridiculous six months of milk replacer bottles twice a day. Monkey, their mother, decided she liked Benny better at birth. Billy was spoiled rotten by yours truly. Soon Benny and Billy will decide they like the smell of the does better than any teat, artificial or natural.
