The shepherd's son was milking goats when we first arrived. I gave him a hard time, because that is ladies work here. He proclaimed that he was "smart" or a good at milking. They milk so long every day that they end up with callouses on the knuckles of their thumbs. Notice the reed type wood at the top of the pic. There is another pic on the blog where Megan is cleaning off the branches from these plants. They use them for the roofs.
