How Now Brown Cow

 Did I mention we got to milk a cow by hand on a plantation near Charleston, South Carolina?  For those of you who know about my love of cows, I am sure you are not taking this news lightly.



Her name is Annabelle.







 Oh, and who knew that cashmere came from goats? Seriously, these were the softest goats we ever felt. 
The dark side to the Plantation. Janey reads the names of all the slaves that lived on this plantation from 1738 until 1865 - the year the Civil War ended. Next to each name -  how much each one cost.  Before the revolution, it was recorded in British pounds. After, it showed $.
