The Coromandal Region - On the farm in Corville

Right now I am sitting in front of the slowest computer I have ever used in my life. . .This is going to be a short post with not many pictures. (none in fact. . .)hehe Anyway, I am in Corville right now staying on a farm. I plan to wake up and Milk a cow by hand! We also get to pick fresh fruit here! It looks like a really fun place! Ihave e just been camping for the last few days, and I really look forward to telling you all about some of the hikes I did in the meantime. HoweverI am typing about 50 words infront of what the computer is displaying, and the internet is too expensive to deal with this right now! So sorry about the lazy boring post, but I have gotten all your emails, and thanks all! They lighten up my day! Sounds like some of you may come visit sooner than I thought! Looking forward to it! So with that said, I'm still alive, and I'll tell you all more in the next day or two! Chaio!

Ole is a farmer in Minnesota.

He is in need of a new milk cow, and hears about a nice one for sale over in Nordakota (that would be 'North Dakota' for you non-
Scandanavians out there).

He drives to Nordakota, finds the farm, and takes a look at the cow. Then he reaches under to see if she gives milk. When he grabs the teat and pulls, the cow farts.

Ole pauses, looks at the farmer who is selling the cow, and reaches under the cow to try again. He grabs another teat and pulls, and the cow farts again.

Milk does come out however, so after a brief negotiation with the cow's current owner, Ole decides to buy the cow and take it home.

When he gets back to Minnesota, he calls over his neighbor, Sven, and says, "Hey, Sven, come and look at dis here new cow I yust bought. Pull her teat, and see vat happens."

Sven reaches underneath, pulls the teat, and the cow farts.

Sven looks at Ole and says, "You bought dis here cow in Nordakota, didn't yah?"

Ole is surprised, since he hadn't told Sven about his trip and replies, ""Yah, dat's right. But how did you know?"

Sven says, "My wife is from Nordakota!"
