Earlier this year we visited Conundrum Farm:
We walked the farm trail where you can feed the animals. Our granddaughter liked the pygmy goats:
I wasn’t too keen on this somewhat larger goat that apparently often jumps over the fence and wanders around the farm:
There’s also a Battle Trail, which we didn’t do, across the battlefield of Halidon Hill, where the English recaptured Berwick-upon-Tweed from the Scots in 1333. We’re saving that for another visit.

I love visiting the animals with the kids, too, and like you I prefer a fence between us :)
Have a good weekend

Goats are so funny. When my boys were small they loved to go to the petting zoo and feed the goats.

Margaret – It looks as though you had a good time, despite the goat :-). My daughter always loved petting zoos and farms, and some of my really fine memories from her growing-up years were when we went to places like that.

Oh, I love the photo of your granddaughter feeding the goat! Now I’m feeling nostalgic for the fun things I did with my kids. Time for me to do something with the grandkids more basic than movies or video games!
Thanks for sharing.

I love the name of the farm. What was the conundrum they faced? Goats are persistent little things.

Paulita, I don’t know why it’s called Conundrum Farm – it’s a complete puzzle to me (sorry I couldn’t resist writing that – I really don’t know the reason behind the name).

Me being a RAM (aries) love goats too!
BTW, thanks for your comment on my blog. My reading slump refuses to buzz. I am trying hard to overcome it. Worse is, my poetry too is gone. I feel kinda so vacant inside…

I have a smiliar picture of my son feeding a goat in the childrens barn at the fair. Shortly after I took the photo the goat bit him! It wasn’t hard and it scared him more than anything, but he does not like goats to this day!

Great photos, and the big goat does look like a trouble maker, LOL.

Your granddaughter is so sweet. It’s simple experiences like that that stay with us throughout our lives. I can remember a pony ride when I was 6 and that was 65 yrs. ago!

I’ve got a picture of me feeding baby sheep (no fence) – husband took it from behind me and you can’t see the sheep!
