Now I’ve told you about my hunting buddy Loren Poncia and his Stemple Creek Ranch Blog page and I just stumbled across another local ranching blogger, Nancy Grossi.
Nancy’s husband Dominic, is a dairyman in Marin County and we grew up together showing cattle in 4-H and FFA, and playing football together for three years.
Dominic’s operation is pretty typical of the Sonoma-Marin Dairyman. His Ranch is a family operation with a fair amount of open pastures and oak covered hills and canyons that make great wildlife habitat. Being in that close of proximity to wildlife, it is not unusual to see deer in the evenings down swiping some feed meant for the cows.
In Nancy’s Saturday Column she features a picture of a buck who made a bed in their feed storage barn. Nothing like breakfast in bed eh?
So check out Nancy’s blog The Wife of a Dairyman if you want to know what my “neighbors” go through in their daily lives.
