“Scientists tell us that the fastest animal on earth, capable of traveling 120 feet per second, is a cow being dropped from a helicopter” – 

Dave Barry

I don’t know what the attraction to cows is but for me, I’m amazed by them.  From the moment this afternoon when I gazed out of my in-laws window and saw these majestically nasty creatures in their pasture, I knew I had to walk down and see them.  Happily I had some companionship that was at least as equally impressed by these four legged slobbering dirt balls.  Once we got near them, I was (and remain) impressed by how friendly they were and how skittish.  They didn’t realize they could squish us with one charge and they even allowed themselves to get chased by Maddie…. crazy animals but really cool!
