Cow Appreciation Day

I thought I’d missed noting it, according to James Lileks, since he says it was Sunday, the 15th. Then I Googled it to learn more and discovered the "real" date is all over the month, including the Chick-fil-A restraurants which celebrated it last Friday, the 13th. And the Billings  Farm & Museum in Woodstock, Vermont, which observes it on the 28th. So there’s still time to recognize the source of all those hamburgers and steaks most of us eat. And the pair of Longhorns I saw the other day out near Lake Travis, saddled and waiting for tiny customers tro have their pictures taken astride. Where would Texas be without cows? Or cowboys, for that matter? Have a Moo-velous time,  y’all.
