A slice of life in rural Ontario

When I moved from the big city to the country over 20 years ago, I thought I was prepared for everything.  I have dealt with wells running dry, wild turkeys strolling across the front lawn and coyote howls in the middle of the night that sounded like they were just under my bedroom window!
I live next to a cattle farm, so often hear them mooing at night.....this morning the 'moo' was a little closer than expected...well, well.....Bessy decided the 'grass was greener on the other side of the fence'
She  looked at me as if to say:
"What's your problem lady...
...I am just having a little snack before I go home'.
I called 'Farmer Bob' to come fetch his cow and off she went back home...luckily, she didn't leave any gifts behind before she left!

With an exciting start to the day, it was time to head to Prince Edward County to meet friends for lunch at The Acoustic Grill 
in downtown Picton.
You can't go wrong with wings and MacKinnon Brewing beer!
 The ferry ride across the to the 'county' 
is always a fun 10 minutes to enjoy the view!

The fields along the way home
 waved their harvest in the gentle breeze.
What a fabulous day to be a 'country girl'!
