Peaches, our dear beloved bovine friend. A lady to the end.
Simply put-this is a blog about the city girl I used to be-the country girl I am now-and the things that are important to me. This is about the journey of life from the tiny to enormous and joyous bits in between. Here we are learning the hard way about gardening, homesteading, canning, solar-living, wood-cookstoving, animal husbandry and wearing out a lot of flip-flops along the way.

Peaches and Cream
We went away last weekend. Not for our anniversary, or a valentines date, or for anything of the sort. We went away to get.....a COW!
She is a Registered Jersey Cow, from a dairy in South Carolina and she is about 12 years old.
Her name is Peaches. And we plan to make Peach Ice Cream this summer. Come on by, it'll be fun. You have milked a cow before, right?
Did someone say summer? As an aside, this weather is getting on my nerves a bit. I'm sorta over the 21*f degree mornings. I'm sorta over frozen water buckets.
Anyhow, here are a few more pictures. Because as the old cliche goes, a picture is worth a thousand words.

We love her.
Also, it's official - after riding horses for most of my life, I never really could call myself a cowgirl - and now I CAN!!
