FIND A PENNY...


We stopped in to see Laurelee and Kekoa at Leilani Farm Sanctuary on a rainy tuesday this week but he wasn't hanging out near the house. Laurelee said she hasn't seen him for a couple of days but she's heard him crowing so it sounds like he's sticking around. She's keeping us posted. Since we were there, we took some time to say hi to the other animals. One in particular, Penny, is a lovable baby goat with a somewhat sad story. She wandered into a friendly farmer's yard by herself at a very young age, her mother apparently shot by a hunter. The farmer took extremely good care of her, he took her everywhere with him, even in the front seat of his truck! Now she lives with the other goats at the sanctuary. The photo shows Laurelee holding Penny, who loves to be picked up. Does that mean, all day long she'll have good luck? Kidding aside, Penny's a cutie! Soft fur and cute little mouth and cheeks that are always chewing on something. I guess that's cud. Save a thought for Penny. And Kekoa too!

Are there any regular kind of animals there in Maui? or are they special needs? I love the goat dont get me wrong.

HA! They do all seem to be special needs.
My friends on Kauai have a tripod goat...just 3 legs.
