A few mornings ago I woke up to the lovely surprise of fog which had rolled in overnight. My internal thermometer warned me of a very hot day to come. As I waved goodbye to the boys I couldn't help my excitement that was rising inside of me. As I closed the front door, I thought about another opportunity door that had opened for us overnight. I've been looking for a steer on the internet for the longest time but with not much success. Finally I had found what I was looking for. A contact, just about twenty minutes from the farm. Johnny and I had decided that I would go and look at the calf and if we were happy he would go with the next day to collect it. Was I ready for this again? I thought so. Of late my passion had returned. I had my old energy back and could tackle all the work that is entailed with raising a bottle fed calf. As I sat on the porch listening to nature’s sounds and drinking my coffee the house was quiet inside. This old farmyard was about to embrace new life again.
