[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1738576, member: 12607"] Life without cows... yeah, it's OK. First time, other than a 1-yr period, in grad school, that I didn't at least have a bottle calf. I've really been surprised, but I don't miss 'em, rarely even think about them. Neighbor still has cows... I can look out the window and see 'em any time. Have a young couple we're helping/advising... so I still get involved with herd work & preg-checking 2 or 3 times a year. Don't miss the winter feeding and mud. - and we bought all hay & DDG for what was, for all intents & purposes, 5 months of the cows being off pasture and fed every morsel. I've got 15 acres of fruit & nut (pecans & hickories) to play around with. Big vegetable garden. Planting some flowers to brighten the wife's day. Bought a lake house & property about the time the cows left... the kids are much more inclined to come home to visit now; skiing/tubing, kayaking/SUPing way more fun than picking up rocks or topping thistles.
