Quote:
Don't forget the winter time, when you get wind blowing snow - or wind blowing frozen ice pellets. Blowing it so hard into your cheek as you are breaking the ice on the stock tank that it stings like a thousand tiny needles. Then when the cows are jostling around you waiting for you to get a hole chopped so they can get a drink, you get tumbled into the tank and have to scoot across the ice to the other side to get out. Then you go to the milking barn and sit down, shove your sore face into a warm cow flank and close your eyes while you milk. You might think you can catch 40 winks while you are milking. But if your dad is milking the next cow over and he finishes first and notices he no longer can hear the sound of the milk from your cow hitting the bucket, and he catches you sleeping, you won't like it.
