Your sister in law has goats? that’s crazy. i think. maybe it’s not crazy in Atlanta. i used to live with two sailors who would bring home signs late at night when they’d been drinking and swore they’d get a goat to eat all the junk in the back yard. they were american too. maybe americans get goats. anyway, i’m really glad the goats were ok.
