Good Moooooo-rning
My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard, And they’re like It’s better than yours, …
Yes, this is what I awoke to.
A few days ago Tweety comes in, “Mom, come see there’s a cow!” “Yes dear, be right there.” The field next door is rarely used. We’ve lived here three years and only occasionally see the donkeys and cows. So, I didn’t think much of it and figured I would walk to the fence with her so she could pet the donkey. No, there really was a cow in the yard. She went on her merry way and I assumed the fence was fine. Yesterday, Tweety is driving us nuts because her friends are with their grandparents. We offer a suggestion telling her to get her MP3 player and go enjoy the swing set. Not five minutes later, “Why are you back inside?” “Cow by the swing set.” Oh my. Different cow and it brought friends. Later we saw the owner coaxing cows back to the pasture and he had mended the fence…or so we thought. This morning I go to sit on the patio to enjoy the peaceful sounds of nature…along with ten of our neighborly weed-eaters. Woohoo! Fertilizing and weed eating all at the same time! moo. Our across the pond neighbor managed to keep everyone corralled until the owner could herd them back in the pasture. It was good entertainment.
Oh and look! We have ducklings! This is the second set this summer. The first didn’t do so well and succumbed to survival of the fittest.

The fun of country living
Somebody else that knows cows in your back yard can be ever so entertaining…hehe We had one in our backyard for so long last year we finally named her.
Hope things are great in your world. Just got back from lunch and my friend swears she felt a rain drop. Come on rain!!!!!

I look on the radar and see a giant wall of storms moving north. You know what is going to happen? It will split, or disappear, when it gets here. There’s just something about this place, storms go around. It’s about time for some rain!

You can’t say the grass is always greener since the cows came to fertilize.
We had a bull that roamed the town unfettered. I saw it once around 2:00am just rambling down the sidewalk like a window shopping big momma. ;D
