It's not clear on the Knolltop..it's cloudy. But muggy and warm. Well, it's only warm if you work up a sweat and I did that this morning, like I do every morning when I clean out the calf pens. I do it in the mornings and the kids do in the evening. Luke put his show heifer in a box stall and is now cleaning that morning and night. She is by herself so she can eat a specific diet....and she's easier to catch in a pen than in a pasture. Sarah's heifer on the other hand has to be caught in the pasture and that's not always easy.
Jake's heifer is in a pen too, she's easy to deal with, everytime you open the gate, she's in your hip pocket, nudging you for some attention. She is spoiled rotten and I wouldn't have it any other way!
Today is writing day and I haven't had a thought on what to write! So, I just keep thinking until one comes to me, oh yes, one just came to me!
And to all you Jersey enthusiasts out there...yes, that heifer would've calved much easier had it been brown instead of black and white. But around here if you haven't figured it out by now, cows are not like TVs, they come in black and white, not color. Besides, I'm lobbying for sheep, not colorbreeds.
