Two strange black cows in my front yard.

Two strange black cows in my front yard.My morning started…unexpectedly. And far earlier than I anticipated. I awakened to my front yard full (literally) of sheriff’s vehicles, the road in front of my house closed to all traffic… and two strange cows.

Strange, how?

I do not have cows. (Or steers or whatever the hell they were.) The tow straps were already on them when I entered the chat, so I don’t know if that was a deputy’s half-assed and ill-advised attempt to catch them or what. The pan of food was from a neighbor (not the cows’ owner) trying to get them to stand still for capture.

Unfortunately, they gave the sheriff’s office such a chase for several hours that they ended up shooting them. (Fortunately not in my front yard. They’d mooooved on by then.)

(Sorry. I’m sleep-deprived because I stayed up watching the Panthers/Hurricanes game last night.)

I guess of the literally ten marked vehicles in and around my yard no one thought to call a mounted patrol out there to round them up, or herd them into one of the LITERALLY a dozen pastures on either side of the road until they could locate the owner. (I don’t have a front gate or I would have just closed it and said let them stay with us until you find the owner.)

*sigh*

RIP Mystery Moos. At least their final hours were full of anarchy and adventure.

So I hope your Friday morning started better than mine did.
