Writing about Goats?
I first began writing about Arcane soon after meeting my first Tibetan Lama in Ashland, Oregon. Is there a co-relation? Possibly. This was 1980 when I was 32 years old. We lived in Mt. Shasta then.
One day I couldn't write like that and the next I could. Of course it's likely also that I had remarried and was living in Mt. Shasta with my son from my first marriage and my new wife then and her two children from her first marriage too. I remember we went to the Zen Abbey there and bought two milk goats and one was Nubian and one was Alpine and began selling goats milk to our friends and making feta cheese a lot because we had enough land we were on to have goats in the back hard as well as a small barn to put them in when the weather got difficult too. So, I think we kept these goats for the kids and the milk and the Feta Cheese which you make from simply draining the milk through Cheese cloth and it is the curds that remain on top of the cheesecloth.
A nubian's milk is almost like whipped cream and very rich whereas an Alpine's milk has less cream in it so they are very different breeds.
