New Friends

I came home from the Central New York Fiber Artists Festival with two new friends - Fancy and Matilda.  They are Nubian dairy goats, purchased from Peggy Van Vorce of West Creek Family Farm in Newark Valley.  I've wanted dairy animals for a long time.  It will be a while before Fancy and Matilda can give me milk, as they are only three and four months old.  They have to grow up, be bred and give birth before they can be milked.  I figure that will be almost a year, but it's worth the wait.
