And so the snow

snowycows.jpg

We went to Vermont in search of snow, and found plenty of it. In case you were looking for yours, it’s up there in the Green Mountain State.

We enjoyed winter playtime, visiting with family, newborn cows, including a three-day-old one named Arabella, delicious food and a stop at baker’s mecca.

But for today, my Best Shot Monday is this contented pair of bovines. Click over to Tracey’s for more Best Shot Monday!

    I think I can even hear them say, “Cheese!”

    What a great picture– it looks like such an idyllic, pastoral, winter setting– the red barn, the blue shadows on the white snow, the rough planks of the fence, and the almost liquid quality of the eyes on those beautiful beasties!

    I guess California isn’t the ONLY place for happy cows! =)

    Yep, they are saying cheese. 😉 Nice shot and great colors. We have our fair share of snow here, so alas, I wish we had to go looking for it! Funny, I have animals in the snow today, too!

    Yeah, I’m digging the cows as well. And the snow. We don’t get much of that around here. Well really we don’t get any, come to think of it. Le sigh.

    What an atmospheric shot. I miss snow. I used to live in the imaginatively named ‘Snowy Mountains’ in NSW. Not so many cows though. Lots of wallabies.
