This is Gertie,
I am continually reminded that life is always renewing. As one dies so too another begins its life. We have had a couple of losses this spring, but yesterday our Jersey milk cow Gertie had a healthy bull calf. She is such a good mom. She delivered about 330pm and by 5p had the little fellow cleaned up and ready to nurse. Of course she chose the furthest point of the pasture to have him. It made for a long walk to the barn. Now what to do with all that milk?
Raw milk! Raw cheese! Raw soap! Don't pasteurize a thing!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the healthy new boy!
