As I was walking through Capitol Hill; well to be perfectly honest I was just leaving Von Trapp’s (a German style beer hall equipped with glass sizes up to the massive 2 liter “boot”) I encountered the unlikeliest of creatures.
The hand holding the leash belongs to the owner, who was at the time, living out of her van. People were stopping and asking if they could pet the goat (and its easy to see why). After giving him a good scratch behind his horns I started chatting with his owner. It turns out the reason why they were sitting out on 15th was to sell hand made hemp leashes to pay for an operation for their dog.
It was difficult to get a clear shot since she had so much energy. Their target goal was $400, and it sounded like they weren’t having too much opportunity in Seattle. I wished them luck and continued on my way. Keep your eyes open, the farm life is everywhere.
hmm, is this the same goat?
