When I saw the photo this painting was based on it really reminded me of  when we had dairy cows. At the time being a kid I could not appreciate the amount of work that went into having dairy cows but now I miss the routine. We had a small operation in todays standards but it suited our small family. Growing up there were multible dairy farms within a couple of miles. They are all gone now. The milk truck would come to pick up the milk a couple times a week. The milk was kept in a large stainless steel tank in what we called our milk house, the mainly concrete room kept the milk quite cool  in the tank. We used to drink milk by the gallons, just dip our jug in and fill it up. How I wish we had digital cameras then, so many memories could have been captured. But being a kid I might not have realized how precious a visible record would have been. So instead I rely on beautiful photos taken by other people that capture a kin to my memories.
