There is a New Kid on the Block


This is the announcement of our new baby calf, born April 27. He is cute as can be (see picture) and we are happy to report that both mom and baby are healthy and doing well. They are registered at Tractor Supply for those of you who would like to send a baby gift.

My husband and I do treat our Black Angus cows well. We go visit them almost every evening. The smell of manure wafts over the pasture, especially on a hot, humid day. I have learned not to wear sandals in the pasture. I did, quite accidentally, one day. It was not a pretty sight. Those sandals were new too!

I sometimes sing to the cows and they seem to like it. No one else would and maybe it is because my voice sounds like a loud MOO that the cows seem to like my songs. They like the songs "Mooooon River" and "Harvest Mooooon." And they really seem to like gospel music, which makes the expression "Holy Cow" seem appropriate.

  1. I often hear the cows across the road humming. Can't identify the song, though.
