Here's that missing photo from the last post - you can see Garry's breeding calendar (thanks to my little brother Ronnie- I brought it back from NJ) and Garry's semen tank he bought from someone in the village- the contents are thanks to the Canadian-Ukrainian dairy commission. We even have semen from Quebec I believe. that frozen stuff is some bull with a famous father who didn't get such a great proof (When they compare how good a bulls' daughters are). I' m sure he's heads and tails better that the little red bull in the village though.
You can see all the full milk cans- this was before the lady buyer that didn't make it yesterday and was coming in the morning (which was about noon today) came for the milk that went glop, glop.--see the earlier post for details. The plastic cans by the window are the ones that we fill for Victor on Sundays. Even the big round steel tubs by the table were full of milk- plus several cans were sitting in the water tub for the other buyers who comes twice a week, on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. You can see that the window wall is still waiting for its coat of paint- it may have to wait until spring as it's getting colder now. Jackets were nice today. The window is cracked open to cool the milk of course, but we'll have to keep the water pipes from freezing before long.
