I've got a few COW tales....My wife and I were in Colorado at the Durango Songwriters Expo and took a few days afterwards to tour the state in our rent-a-jeep, well in NW CO. we jumped off the paved roads onto a gravel stretch of road, the map said it'd be like 40-50 miles , no big deal...20 miles in we started seeing alot of COWS going the opposite direction down the side of the road 5 minutes later a whole bunch of COWS, then hundreds of COWS had us surrounded , there were so many COWS we couldn't move, they were MOOin', bumpin' each other around cause they were a bit pissed they had to go around a jeep, we literally couldn't even open the doors...10 minutes later the COWS started to thin out a little and at the end of the herd of COWS - 6 COWboys "just headin' 'em down to some new grass"---
Also my wife's side of the family has some Pennsylvania farms and one of them is a big HOLSTEIN DAIRY FARM--3 or 4 huge MILK trucks a day pull in and out of there. It is all auto-MILK and the MILKing house is quite an operation...2 or 3 times a day, single file they got to bring all however many hundreds of them in and out, they also do alot in vitro fertilization, I have seen several day or two old CALVES but haven't seen one being born, they keep all the IN-CALF MAMA COWS in a seperate corral.
My mom grew up during the depression and they had a couple of family COWS, that they MILKED regularly of course, she has stories of making the butter right there sittin' in front of their house and walkin' that COW around and even a story about one of the COWS gettin' into someone's still and comin home as a DRUNK COW that soured the MILK for a couple of days. My wife had a favorite COW growing up around her uncles farm, she's still asleep so I can't include the name here yet for the obvious songs that lie here in these stories...make one up...
now go make some Moosic...I'm gonna take a break here and go add some MILK and CREAM to my coffee...see ya 'round the FARM...MOOker
