Day 5

Day 5...No power, but it is starting to come on around us. Only Betsy will drink from the pond. Everyone else is very suspicious of it.

I snuck into the barn and had my own water bucket. Those who are not as smart will have to get a little thirstier, I guess, before they acquire a taste for pond water.

The bad ponies were moved yesterday because they took advantage of there not being any electricity - i.e. no hot wire - to knock the fence down and stroll along the neighbor's driveway to browse down by the road with cars whizzing by. How uncouth, not to mention lazy - I always jump OVER the fence.

Do not forget to vote for Goat of the Year. That would be me, IMHO.

last summer I saw a solar powered electric wire generator - where the sun made the wires zap even when the power was out. Sorry about the naughty ponies... Here's hoping you get ginger snaps soon. Oh yea - and I voted.

LOVE the blog. And you bet I voted. Dear Belle, I hope by now that you and your barn and farmer pals have gotten your power on. Yes?
