Question?

To set the scene: Picture our front corner, the one where Quiet Oak and Lost Pine meet. We have that front corner cleared somewhat. Well, since before the Nov. 11 election, we have had our McCain/Palin sign sitting down in that area. Mind you, it wasn't a big sign, just one of the small plastic ones that slip down over the wire that you stick in the ground.

Second scene: Our 3 cows. For those of you who have not seen our cows, we have one that is black & white, one that is all white and one that is all black. These 3 cows have been in the side sections of our yard, maybe a total of 1/3 of an acre. Recently, we finished the front section of our property and along our drive. The cows watched us (and yes, bellowed at us) as we were finishing the fence on this piece. Today, we let them into this section and they were quite happy.

Third scene: The cows really explored this section of our property. Lots of green things to eat, and of course, some room to run. Remember, I mentioned my McCain/Palin sign? I forgot to take it out of the area before letting the cows loose. Well they found it. The wire is somewhat out of the ground and the sign is about 50 feet away and 10 feet in the trees.

Now here is the funny part: I was asking dad tonight if he saw what the cows did to my McCain/Palin sign. He goes "yes, the black one just kept kicking at it until it came loose."
Rich and I just about died laughing, dad had a straight face, he didn't get it at first-------the question is----do you?

too funny!

I bet they really are thrilled to have that extra room. Not to mention it will be nice for you all to have them clear it out for you...

miss ya'll - I'm sure we will be seeing you in May - I hope! ;)
