Josh and Brent of Beekman 1802 in Sharon Springs had some tough news to share today. They had to say "Bon Voyage" to PolkaSpot. 

PolkSpot, the star of the Beekman 1802 Farm, had a very brief illness and made a painless departure today. 'Bon Voyage' messages are coming in by the thousands to their Facebook page. Josh and Brent are asking for no RIPs only 'Bon Voyage' along with any photos or memories.

PolkaSpot came to the Beekman Farm when she and her mother were adopted from a neighboring farm that was shutting down according to the sad announcement on Facebook:

PolkaSpot and her mother were dropped off at Beekman 1802 Farm the first winter we were here. Her mother was ill when she arrived and passed away shortly after. The orphaned baby eventually grew into the long-necked, big-eyed, thick-lashed beauty that we all know today. Like any supermodel, there’s always been something a little alien about her.

She had quite a personality and was the 'Diva' of the  Beekman Farm. Josh and Brent like to think that PolkaSpot is headed to Paris where her surroundings will naturally be more sophisticated.
