We’d been visiting the old dairy barn and just as we were leaving the farm workers were bringing in the cows from the field to the barn. This brought back memories. My paternal grandmother owned a farm and when I was young (and before she sold the land for development) I remember her doing exactly the same thing.

It also solved a bit of a mystery. A while back I took a picture at Muscoot of some chains attached to wooden posts (see: Chains). At the time I didn’t know what their purpose was. Now I do. The’re used to make a corridor for the cows to pass through on their way into the barn.
