No, it's not!!!! Ask me how I know... I did it. I "borrowed" a goat from my (then) boss to help with the large lot we used to live on. It didn't like the grass, but it LOVED my rosebushes and the seatbelts in the car.....
Fantastic! I've always wanted an easy way to deal with the seatbelt problem. I never, ever thought to use goats! Thanks, shel!

Ya gotta love the Internet! I learn something new every day!

You need to be careful to get an animal who cuts the grass, instead of tearing it out. If I remember correctly, cows cut and sheep tear away. I don't know about goats, but they probably eat the grass, the roots, the soil and the trees too.

Horses are the only grass eaters that I can think of off hand that have both upper and lower incisors. They would cut grass too. I do remember from all the cowboy vs sheep herder movies that they 'believed' (incorrectly) that sheep would destroy the grazing land, but I can't remember if it was because they tore away the plants or coated them with lanolin... Maybe this is why God invented lawn mowers in the first place.

Saturday it rained all day—a good soaking rain! It rained half a day Sunday and some today. And tonight we can smell the smoke from the Dismal Swamp fire. All that rain just made it angrier.

Can I rant and rave in this thread?

CRAP!

CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! CRAP! CRAP!

Now we have smoke AND mosquitoes!

See? We cross-posted but that's what I meant, more or less (the seat belts? ).
Oh, YES, the seatbelts. It also thought the cars were mountains - (this cursed thing must have been part mountain goat). He loved to get up on the car roofs and just stand there. Goat hooves are not good for car paint finishes. I am telling you, the darned thing would eat ANYTHING that he wasn't supposed to eat.

By the way, Stitchawl, Texas State Troopers tend not to believe you when you tell them the reason you aren't wearing your seatbelt is because a goat ate it....

Goats are good climbers. Aren't they all mountain goats, at least at some point in their ancestry? And they eat everything. Do you remember that old looney tune short with the billy goat? I think it ended up eating the house.

No goats here! Just gorgeous weather! Finally! Windows are open! Yard work being done without risk of cardiac collapse!

Daily highs in the 80's F - no humidity - sprinkly showers.

Drizzly rain with temperature in the low 60's. It's a good day for napping.

Cool and cloudy with occasional sprinkles. After all the heat, I'll take it.
