My refuge during COVID…
…has been in the barn; here at my farm spring has indeed sprung! Grass is growing. Cows and grazing and feeding and twice a day milking give my days a ‘normal’ feel.
Normalcy in daily routines
Normalcy in the comforting sounds of the pulsation of milkers, of calves suckling their bottles
Normalcy in the spring grassy smell of manure
Normalcy in the taste of spring milk
Oh, to be a cow…
