Around 9p.m. last night, in the midst of Torrential Rain 2010, our neighbor knocked on our door informing us that a cow was in their backyard.
For those of you that don't know, our backyard backs up to a cow pasture. It's very nice and relaxing to sit out on the patio and look upon the quiet cows. It's one of the reasons we bought this house.
But, last night, this one particular cow was not happy to cross over into suburbia. She mooo'd and mooo'd ALL. NIGHT. LONG. And not just your typical moo'ing. It was a painful, scared moo. Of course, this morning the girls have chattered non-stop about the moo'ing and that "poor cow-y".
Ugh, I'm just hoping the neighboring farmer comes over to 'round up Bessie before she disrupts another night of sleep.
Poor cow-y.
So my question is "did the neighbors tell you about the cow due to the entertainment value or did they think it was your cow to do something with?" You see in our neighborhood, we get blamed for the free range chickens that do not belong to us and often have to enlighten folks that if we HAD chickens they would be in a pot on the stove with some dumplings.
ReplyDeleteMaybe poor cow-y saw Randi's BBQ and got worried?? Giggle - well hope you'll get a good nights sleep after that experience.
