The grass is always greener...


You know the saying; "The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence." Its something our parents have probably said to us at one time or another and we just roll our eyes and nod agreeably. Well, did you know that its actually true? Possibly not in the sense they were speaking of but in the literal sense. I don't know how many times I have watched a cow craning its neck over my barbed wire fence to eat the greener grass on my side. I have even had cows and sheep crawl under my fence to get to the choice blades of delicious green grass. Apparently the sh*t is always greener on the other side of the fence as well because I can't for the life of me keep my dogs out of the neighbors cow field. They spend hours out there scavenging and come home with green sh*t eating grins(literally) Dogs are gross. I have even caught our pup, Zama stealing a field mouse from the cat. Another case of 'the grass is greener...'? "Hmmm I wonder what the cat is eating, I sure would like to try that!" Anyway, the moral of the blog is, 'the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence... just make sure you don't catch the crotch of your pants on the barbed wire when you're climbing over to get it!'
