Today the kids and I had the opportunity to visit an Alaskan Homestead equipped with horses, chickens, rabbits, baby goats, and turkeys! The above turkey was named Tom and he proved to be an enthusiastic host as he followed us around the farm fluffing his plumage and gobbling away. At first the kids were a bit unsure of this large and flamboyant bird, but by the end he had won all of us over. The highlight of the trip however, were the two baby goats. I'm pretty sure watching babys pet baby goats may be the sweetest thing there is! I suppose Elsa Elsa agrees only somewhat because on the way home she proclaimed that "the baby goats were the cutest animals-but not quite as cute as the baby otter."
