Mr. Bean went missing weeks ago, broke his tether, we figured he was getting chased by predators. But then when we figured he had been eaten by the coy wolves, he was spotted in a local state park, near the rocks at the head of the waterfall - treacherous going for humans and predators, easy for goat.
However, when we tried to go get him, the place was packed with tourists from out of state, and we could not find him. Tried several times, the local deputy was helping, armed with peppermints in crinkly plastic ... but nope. Then last Thursday, he was spotted in a different state park, but I was here at the Post Office working, and Kermit was in northern Vermont with the car, so we sent our friend Court, who had met Mr.Bean at least. Alas, no luck. But this weekend, suddenly Court and friend showed up - with Mr. Bean tied three ways in the back of his truck!
