The Sandburg house is one of our favourite places to visit with our Pyrs. 
One of the first times that we went there with our first two Pyrs, we were
stopped by one of the rangers.  Come to find out, besides working at the
Sandburg house, she raised goats and had Pyrs.  She is no longer working
working at the house, but has started her own goat dairy farm not far from
here in North Carolina.  From the records that Mrs. S kept about her goats
(all these are still in the house), she definitely knew the benefits of
goat's milk, and the way to breed good stock.
