It would be one thing to get the cows onto the truck... but once we saw the truck we realized that it was going to be a job just to get the truck onto the farm!

It's called a "pot truck" and you'll see why very soon. 

 

 Barry suggested that I take a look at the pot from inside the truck and see it from the cows' point of view.

Why

I came to Pine Plains a few years ago by choice, not by chance of birth. But the small-town rural community I chose is changing. The farmers have, for the most part, sold to people from the city and fields are becoming lawns.

I am making this journal to preserve what I can of a changing way of life and to share it with the community. On a more personal level, I am making this as a way of holding on to the reasons why I came here.
