DC


This is actually how we always dress on trips.
 
Really, we went to the Young Cooperator Dairy Policy and Legislative Forum with the National Milk Producers Federation in DC. Part of the meeting involves going to speak with your congressman and senator's offices about dairy issues.
 
Since it was in the middle of calving, building the barn, and doing field work, it was not the best time for Kris to leave, but he quickly acclimated. Turns out it's much easier sitting in meetings and talking than it is doing manual labor for an entire day!  
 
Today things were back to normal.  112 heifer calves so far and three bulls born today.  None of them care about governmental regulations (that they've said), but we do.
