[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 228336, member: 852"] Same thing I wondered in my half-awake state of mind. :shock: I know the newspaper gets delivered about that time, but this wasn't the newspaper person. And we sure aren't a busy road. I don't usually run into anyone at that hour. If they had [u][i]stopped[/i][/u], where I'm kind of "stuck" going 3mph with the cow, I would have been really stressed. :o I have a good reason for being on the road but there's not very many good reasons for anyone else to be out at that time of day. Especially not where the car was going the opposite direction needed to go to town. Second milking is at 2pm - gets us done around 5 and we have the evening free then. Some would say it's not ideal for the cows as there's 10 and 14 hours between milkings (as opposed to a perfect 12 and 12), but it does allow a person to have a life outside of milking... I know some that milk at 5 and 5, and that sounds like up early, in bed late, have both your entire evening and most your morning taken up. As boss said once, "If you really want to be married to your cows..." LOL. As far as keeping people wondering - I do that all the time, unintentionally. Shucks, the four wheeler is boss's - I'm reduced to moving hay with the wheelbarrow in the summer and dogsled in the winter, cows go back and forth with a halter and lead rope...:lol2: Yes I'm sure my antics keep all the neighbors amused.
