I went to lunch with my brothers today. Why do I call them the "goat boys"? We grew up in Albuquerque, New Mexico. My grandparents lived in Santa Fe, which is about 1 hour away. When we would visit them, the boys, and sometimes my sister, would go and play with grandpa's goats. I usually read or watched TV.
