But dancing (the Tango especially!) and Carnival makeup are great! Joining in when people are trying to show you hospitality, as well. Breaks down barriers...even the goat barriers. ;)Carolyn Evaine Countermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05955241245087668308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944958670766129557.post-59547378151011074942011-12-05T22:08:12.955-06:002011-12-05T22:08:12.955-06:00So in summary: dancing yes, goats no (unless they&...So in summary: dancing yes, goats no (unless they're in trees, of course).

I visited some neighborhood goats when I was out caroling with our church last night.<br /><br />They were behind a fence, so it was good.Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03048851144169610362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944958670766129557.post-87827095716657787062011-12-04T13:15:14.158-06:002011-12-04T13:15:14.158-06:00Sheila, I write things like that and it all of the...Sheila, I write things like that and it all of the sudden hits me - He has been giving me amazing opportunities all along. I just need to put aside the fear of what other people think and take the opportunity, whether it is putting on Carnival makeup or something much bigger.
