Slide Ranch



OMG!!! GOATS!!!

Last weekend during a break in the rain, we headed up to Slide Ranch, a little educational ranch/farm on the Marin Coast (http://www.slideranch.org/) that has some goats, sheep, and chickens. We thought she would enjoy looking at the animals, and we knew we'd all enjoy getting out of the house, as the near-constant rain has put a real cramp in our style recently. Slide Ranch is beautiful - situated on a bluff overlooking the ocean, with the greenest grass I've ever seen (thanks to the aforementioned rain), the opportunities for great photos abound here. This outing presented us with the perfect chance to take some shots of Susannah wearing the cute hand-knit sweater and hat set that Anna made for Christmas. But never mind that - Susannah was mainly interested in the animals. I don't think I've ever seen anyone get so excited over a few goats and sheep!

Hummingbird! (can anyone identify what kind?)

Have you ever taken her to a zoo? I imagine she would absolutely pass out from the excitement!

A nice sweater and hat!
We had a 2.5 year old girl visiting us two summers ago and sheep were also a big hit. Be sure to ask Don to take you there when you come in June. Out neighbors chickens are also worth a stop.
