los angeles is the most magical place. a couple of weeks ago the CRA decided to rent some goats from Monrovia to take care of a weed problem on the hill by Hill and 4th Street. My brother and I stopped by to feed some nice alfalfa to our hooved friends. Apparently a group of business men joked about roasting said animals and the kind shepard on duty responded, ” you wouldn’t want to do that. they’ve got poison oak all over them.” what a friend. The goats were supposed to stay for two weeks but they finished the job early, returning to their inland empire home after only four days of cud-chewing. we need goats here ALL the time.
a nice juxtaposition

I remember hearing about this on the radio (I think). I have a deep feeling that goats are magical. I mean, they make the most tasty cheese. Pretty rad that the city did this. Los Angeles has hope.
Amazing..these goats could also be employed as paper shredders, I bet. Miss you Katie…
