Viking sunrise

Eric, the dairy owner, said he and Carol had a "stress-test" to their marriage last night. I looked up from the cow I was cleaning. "Hanging wallpaper?", I asked. "No, chasing heifers at 1:00 in the morning". That would be stressful, I thought, but why to a marriage? He & Carol had woke to the dog barking at the escaping heifers. After some trial and error, they decided to herd one heifer back into the barn at a time. However, it seems, they often had a difference of opinion on which heifer to do next. Well, running around outside in the cold and dark at 1:00 a.m., I'd guess any couple aren't at their peak compromising skills. Might also explain why Eric stayed longer than usual at the milking parlor this morning. (ha)

Once again an absolutely beautiful picture! Keith and I wanted to see these types of sunrises and sunsets in Negril Jamaica but didn't get to see any due to cloud cover. Carolyn
