But hope you have some information. I surely would like to know more about Sarah and her first husband, the Unknown HOWARD, also on Alexander "Alex" BUTRAM!

My best friend raises goats and she stays busy. I bought one nanny from her which had twins her first time and triplets the next time. How many do you have to milk. Kim has her own pasteurizer and makes her chesse and butter. It keeps her busy. Especially when two or three come fresh at the same time. It keeps her slim and trim though.
