THE DAIRY FARM

My first volunteer -- way to go, Briella!  She's cleaning before milking.

Jared was a pro right away!

This is how Titus was the entire time we were in the barn!  It was a strong aroma, but --good grief -- not THAT strong!  Okay, I did have to wash all of our attire once we got home.  Dan could tell where we'd been.  He claims pigs smell less than cows?!?

One of the newest little ones!

Jared got to hook the milking machine on.  He was the only one brave enough to give it a try!

Since Titus has been studying farms for science, we decided to make a quick visit to a local dairy farm.  It was loads of hands-on fun for all!  Well, some people didn't like the slobbery kisses from the calf.  And, some people refused to attempt to milk the cow.  A chance of a lifetime!  I tried to convince them, but to no avail.  I love living in rural northeast Pennsylvania!  And, I'm very grateful for awesome "neighbors" who are willing to take the time and show us their work.  Fun memories!
