Carl Sandburg's Connemara - a beautiful place to visit


       Carl Sandburg's place in western North Carolina is a wonderful place to visit. There is a charge if you want to go through the Carl Sandburg home. But if all you want to do is just to wander the trails or visit the goat barn -it is all free 
 As you can see there is a beautiful lake and there are many walking trails - all open to the public. Free is  welcome news anytime,    but more so in a weak economy.
My grandchildren especially enjoyed meeting the miniature goats - up close and personal. The Connemara staff hands baby goats to park visitors - right after they are born. This way the goats become accustomed to being around people and are very friendly
