On Thursday,while the weather was still mild,I went with John Falkner to Goat Island. We took sweet feed and hay to feed the goats, and also dewormed them and put a dose of insecticide on them. They look great. All eight came flying across the top of the hill when they heard the boat motor. They came down on the beach and are still very tame and eager to see people.

There is a shelter on the island but the roof is just plywood. John has gotten a donation of roofing material ( felt and squares of roofing) but we are looking for some assistance when this weather warms up. we need a couple of guys to help roof the shelter or some funds to hire someone.

We are also running low on funds for feed, ( the kitty stayed pretty full during the summer months ). There is still a collection box at Green Valley Market and Cafe in Red Hill on 229. We had talked to the Webmaster about setting up a PAYPAL account, but not sure how to do this, or if folks would participate.PLease let usknow what you think. And if you have a chance, drop by Green Valley and make a donation. We'll keep taking feed out there and checking on them, and hope they survive the winter to greet us all when spring arrives.

Thanks to all who have helped keep Goat Island populated!!

Hope everyone has a happy and safe Thanksgiving.
