I was walking along a fire break near a neighboring property when I came upon what looked like a small (3' diameter) sinkhole. I decided to see how deep it was by dropping a rock and listening for a thud or a splash. Upon hearing nothing, I decided something heavier was needed, and began to look around. After looking around for a few minutes, I saw an old jeep transfer case laying amongst some broom sage. I picked it up, carried it over to the hole, and proceeded to drop it in. I was listening for verification of landfall, when all of a sudden, this goat comes running up to me and dives straight into the hole.
That's weird, I thought. Wonder what motivated that goat to jump into that hole? After pondering this for a few minutes, I went on my way and continued scouting for deer and turkey sign. I had walked a bit when I ran into our neighbor who had a perplexed look on his face.
"You seen an old goat anywhere around here?", he inquired.
"Funny you should ask.", I replied. "I saw one dive into a hole in the ground a little bit ago, strangest thing I ever saw", I said.
"Hmm", he thought. "Couldn't have been my goat. Mine was tied to an old transfer case."
Happy Friday!
