Did I mention?

Did I mention that I almost hit a cow on my way to work this morning?

No?

Yeah...well...I almost hit a cow on my way to work this morning. I was toodling along, jamming to some Garth Brooks, came up over a hill, and there it was...a big.black.cow...standing in my lane of the road (yes, mom, I was ON the road). Luckily there was room to pass on the other side of the road while the dumb thing just stood there looking at me.

I love living in the country. :o)

***Wednesday update: The fence has been repaired and the cow is now safely back where she belongs...off the road.
