There is a cow in my yard....

(Note: I made a deposit on a cow that lives about 3/4 of a mile away. He/She lives over a busy road ... and there are no other cows near us....)

Spenser, Sean and I are out planting trees this afternoon when I see the neighbor on his tractor in the field next to ours and I'm thinking .... "What the hell is he doing"

As I look closer I realize that he is chasing a cow across the field. We go over to investigate and I ask what is going on. He explains to me that he is trying to keep this cow from going over into the next field (as it does while we are standing there). When I ask him who's cow it is - he doesn't know.

The next thing I know there are people on horseback riding up with lasso's, when I ask them if they know who's cow it is, they tell me its the Grants cow ....

I respond "The Grants Cow? Hey that's MY cow!"

My neighbor says "Did you pay for it yet?"

"Uuhhhh Yeah, and it's out there making my meat tough!"
