Born & raised in big city Chicago, so.....definitely did not come in contact with cows, bulls, chickens, etc, But eventually moved to Wisconsin...........
Now, my mom was born & raised in Wisconsin, moved to Chicago to attend nursing school, met & married dad, and had me. I had and still have a lot of relatives in Wisconsin (mostly Milwaukee area) and tho Milwaukee is a big city, quite different from Chicago. But I got to go to Wisconsin State Fair every summer and.......yep, found myself a lot in the farm area........cows, bulls, pigs, sheep.....I really liked that, would watch, move on, go back, etc. Usually stayed with one aunt, but my other aunts, uncles & cousins always had us come and stay with them for a while (summers). I loved it, looked forward. And they all loved coming to Chicago, big city, exciting different, very different from Milwaukee. Hard to believe that so much later in my life, I moved to this wonderful, beautiful state. Yep, way up north, very rural, so for me.......very different. I love it, doubt I could stand big city life again. Yep, small town America, only a few miles to the farms and ranches, cows & bulls, and I see them. Better than street cars & buses. LOL Sorry, I get off tangent at times.
