Nearly ready to go

Yes it looks like the neighbours barley is just about ready to go.

I like that I can step out my front door, walk fifty feet to my right, and I’m in his barley field. It helps me to feel connected to the land and these farmers in ways I wouldn’t normally.

He used to use this field for grazing cattle and we’d get up in the morning and walk out on the deck and there were 20 or 30 head of cattle standing at the fence, all staring at us.

Cows are sometimes funny. They do seem to have a whole other life going on amongst themselves that we are not privy to. It’s like they have an inside joke and they are keeping it to ourselves.

If any animal were to plan an uprising against the humans, my bet would be on the cows.

We’d never see it coming.
