Another beautiful spring morning, but it's not as beautiful as it seems for me Kate. My mom was still in the hospital fighting cancer, heart cancer. I had to get up though, for I had a farm to run, and with the Cow Festival tomorrow I had to get Bubbles ready.
I walked into then barn and greeted Cowbell, my other cow, but she almost seemed mad that I didn't pick her over Bubbles. Bubbles coat was way better than Cowbells and even though Cowbells milk was the best around, Bubbles coat was too good to pass. I fed Bubbles and washed her. After I brushed her I did the same to Cowbell and my bull Axel. I saddled up Scarlet and threw Bubbles in the wagon and started for Mineral Town to give Rick, the judge, my cow so she would be ready for tomorrow.
When I got back I found that Dr. Paige Hunter my vet was there. I had made an appointment and forgot about it…. again. It's busy on a farm and with the Cow festival I was as busy and forgetful as I'd ever be. She had gone through everyone when only my horse Scarlet and my dog Tess. When she checked Tess I heard she was going to be a mom and was pregnant, but when Dr. Hunter said the same about Scarlet I was shocked. I had never seen a stray horse, only dogs.
Dr. Hunter thought I knew about a huge heard of horses in the field behind my barn. I was amazed that horses would want to pick my field instead of a bigger wilder one, but the bigger thing on my mind was what to I do with them do I let them live on my farm every time they come and knock up my horse or yell and scream at them and attempt to move them to a different field… what to do.
Next time….
What will Kate do with the horses, and who will win the Cow Festival?
