   Magicalistic!

   I really like it that someone would use 5,000 hand-made bricks to construct a tower encircled by 276 steps — all for a herd of goats.

   Andrew, I think you should take over my goat rodeo site… until I get a goat of my own at least.

   Andrew, do goats’ eyes still bother you?

   A man has to learn to live with certain things. And for me, Sheila, goats’ eyes are one of those things.

   And, Derek, I’d be happy to work with you on any goat related project you had in mind.

   Yeah, my goat rodeo needs some love for sure. Though we still haven’t given up on the goat of the Italian variety. Kind of waiting to see if I can you know, make it happen for real.

   Pardon my intrusion into your world, but the tower speaks to me. My goats would love it! And Andrew: 2 or 3 of mine are “with kid”, due in October. So I’ll need to peddle a few.

   An aside: That photo has got to be of the Portugese goat tower (or possibly of the one in South Africa), not of the Illinois tower profiled in the linked article.

   There are no mountains in Findlay, Illinois, nor in fact anywhere in Illinois.

   I oughta know. I live five miles from the highest point in the state — a majestic 1235 feet.

    “goats’ eyes”

    Y’all, I am so proud.

    No intrusion at all, Alan. And, were I not a city boy, I would definitely talk goats peddling with you.
