We were...Nice photos and even weeds are beautiful!<br /><br />We were in Marin County on vacation last week and saw so many dairy farms. I wonder if we drove past yours at sometime? I posted some photos on my blog of our adventures. We live over in the valley in the burbs and so it's so much fun to go over the coast.<br /><br />I can't remember how I found your blog but I wanted to let you know I enjoy it.Tami@NutmegNotebookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03734911958992997465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-804707549091159852.post-3089339844495834112011-07-15T17:15:19.050-07:002011-07-15T17:15:19.050-07:00@texwisgirl, You're exactly right!
