Nice Laugh Farm


It's been a little short of a year since I stopped working at NL Farm out in lovely Araimachi. Saturday at ESLC, I heard from one of the students that the manager from the farm is moving on and there was a goodbye event for him today- so we decided to round up Ken and go and say goodbye to Daichi.

The main issue with working out there was the travel time to the school every week, and for that same reason- Ritsy had never made it out to the farm. But considering what a kick she got out of the animals- it's too bad I never got her to go down there before!
She was quite taken by the baby goat named Yuki (meaning Snow) because it is as white as snow. Here they tried to get Ken to kiss the goat, unsuccessfully.
New to the farm is the Llama, which I was quite impressed with. He was very docile, friendly and inquisitive. Documented here is one of the many times that he was trying to steal a kiss from me.
I loved the 'doo on this goat, Pampi (son of bambi). He is quite the ornery fellow, just like his dad though.
After a great tour by Yuki (no not the goat- one of the friendly ladies that work there) we said our goodbye's and took Ken to Shitoro. Poor guy has an itchy neck, so we put this glove on his left hand to stop him from scratching.

It was quite a nice day!
