DREAMERS CHALLENGE SEPT 23RD, FARM LIFE

This weeks theme is
"Farm LIfe"

I grew up on a farm in Nampa Idaho.
It was a very wholesome life.
We had milk cows and I remember all the milkers
and the milk cans and the truck that picked up the milk.
My cousin milked some of the cows by hand and would squirt milk in my face.
We had chickens and my Mother sold the eggs and we had lots of fried chicken dinners.
We had a pantry filled with yummy goodies made with fresh milk and butter and the dinner table always had fresh raw milk and fresh butter along with homemade jam.
We had acres of corn and hay and hired hands that my Aunt cooked for so they sat at our table too. 

We had tractors, hay wagons, cows, horses, pigs and many farm cats.
Whenever I am in my home town I drive by the old farm but its not the same.
The house burned to the ground in the 70's.

It was a good life and I have many fond memories.
