Wanted to pass this along. I have a neighbor who lives at the edge of town, on ten acres. He had a farm two mile away on the other side of town. This is a small town, 200 people. He and his wife would summer their cattle on the farm, then walk them down the road, through town, and they would turn in to their gate when they got to the house, and they would winter them on hay at home. One year they were busy and a little late getting the cattle moved. On the day they walked out to get the cows, they met them about halfway. The cows decided it was time and headed for the house to get their hay. The folks just counted them and turned around and walked in front of them back to the house. Wasn't much of a cattle drive.
