Smile of the acrobat
I'll send you off on your weekend with the smile of goat, a Misfit–none other than Wilbur the Acrobatic Goat who we adopted from New Moon Goat Farm Rescue some years ago. HE came here as a youngster and is about six I think. I just swoon for any creature with brown or red coats. And how can one not admire this face, the pencil thin goatee and the impish expression.
I can say that if i had a dime for every time I raised my voice in my best authoritative mother tone and yelled out a name, it would be,
"WILBUR!!!!!!!"
He is a monkey, a madmen, a leaper, a dancer, a bouncer. I tell him he'll be old someday, and then he'll understand what it is like being around a goat in a monkey suit.
He is of course part of the new book.
