Our priceless moment of the day!
Rowan and I drove down tonight to pick her son, Conor, up from Hee-Haw hell. Better known as Toledo, WA. Small towns and I just don't mix! I worked my tail off to get out of one and never want to go back!
So, this is just priceless! We were coming around a bend in the country. Yes, I mean country, middle of nowhere! And I have to slam on my brakes quickly. In the middle of the road stands a beautiful, puzzled calf. I look to the right and there's these cows looking at the calf like..."What the hell are you thinking...MOVE!" We pull over and proceed to try and get the damn calf back into the pasture. The calf takes off on a buck/trot/run. I kid you not! Here are two citified country girls chasing this calf down the road as it bucks and jumps! I can only imagine what it looked like. A young country kid stopped to help, thinkin' we city folk didn't know what we were doing....but when we didn't give him the time of day and were focused on the calf, figured we knew what we were doin' and drove off.
Needless to say, the calf got to where it needed to be and we were once again on our way down a country lane to pick up Conor. See! I can be nice about where and what we were doing. It's just painful to write!
I'm really excited about Conor coming and staying with us in July. We will have a house full of teenagers for a couple of weeks. I know, it's just sick, sick and wrong to be happy about all that. Check back in on me in a couple and weeks and see if we're still giddy!
