Memories

This painting brings back a few memories of when I was a kid. In the summer we sometimes would split the herd of cattle and walk one group over to my Grandparents farm to graze for the season. It was a little bit of a stressful event, cows tend to panic easily and would not always go in the direction you intended. The other memory this painting brings to mind is of the many times the cattle would "break out". Our fences were not the best so this was not a difficult thing for them to do but it would take many hours of running through the bush and on our side roads to bring them home again. This was something we dreaded of course. 
I'm amazed how after all these years I actually miss most everything about a working farm, even the long hard working summers of hands on haying that would take almost all of our summer vacation.
I never thought I would miss all the hard work of haying but part of me does.
