Jananas

When we were in Ohio last weekend Jason took me for ice cream at Young’s Dairy. We met our friend Jacob there and Chris, Kerri, and Harper joined us as well. I grabbed way too much ice cream – note to self, single scoop and something light tasting is the way to go.

Then we went outside to pet goats. Jason spent all his pocket change buying feed for the goats. Some of them were super aggressive trying to get to the food (see the neck stretch if you want proof). Others were way more laid back. I especially liked the little kids and the super pregnant mama goats. Its official, I want to live in a place where we can have a goat.

After we’d exhausted our change we went into the small barn area to see some of the other animals. This calf was very affectionate and loves to lick. The big pad of taste buds in the middle of a cow’s tongue sure does feel strange. I’d also love to live somewhere were I could provide land to a rescued cow (not for dairy production!).

The best part of being in the barn was the little kid who pointed at the cows and excitedly yelled “HORSES”. Apparently someone failed the animal recognition section of kindergarten. The same kid was also stoked about the “Hickens”.

I really enjoy being in Ohio. We’re trying to coordinate schedules for this summer to figure out when we can take another mini road trip, but between weddings and prior commitments it may not be until the fall.
