Morning Commute

My commute is seldom boring, I harness the team around 6:30 a.m., hitch to a vehicle, and head off to work at about 4 miles per hour. Here, gridlock is defined by a white-tailed deer running across the road at the same time my friend's tractor is moving feed for his dairy cows. As you can see, the view is amazing, the air is clean, the sound of trace chains rattling along puts my mind at ease. The College is about 4 miles away where our students are preparing breakfast and getting organized for the work of the day--work that will include these two horses.
