MOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

One day last week, (the day Jay & Shelly were coming to visit) I happened to glance out the window and did a double take. Our yard was filled with cows! I called the owner's....nobody home....I called their dad, our back-up number....no answer....I called Bob's cell and said "Our yard is filled with cows and nobody's home!!" and he said DON'T LET THEM EAT THE FLOWERS (right honey, that proved to be easier said than done!!) I grabbed a pot and a spoon and tore out the door banging and yelling and they all started to slowly move CLOSER to me, I think they thought I was calling them for dinner!!! I jumped in the car, headed towards them blowing the horn (even that was a little scary, since they were bigger than my car) that got them away from the flowers (Whew!!) and caused them to wander around the other side of the pond and congregate around the barn. I finally got in touch with the owner's on a cell phone and it was quite amazing how those cows all marched home when Jeff showed up with a bag of grain on his shoulder and started calling them....... just another exciting day in the country!
