UConn cow pastures - Scifi-Meshes.com

Shot today on the UConn campus in Storrs, CT, just behind one of the dairy barns. Especially happy with the rightmost frames, though Photomatix did have a little trouble getting the sky right..

Click for full size!

Also, the sunset...with cows!

Cool

My first year in college, there were deer roaming around campus, specifically, in this glen near the base chapel (the dorms were built on Fort Douglas, an old Army base, originally, as Olympic Village when the winter games were there in 2002...yes, I spent my first year in college in Utah

)

And now, the required dumb joke about cows: Good cheese comes from happy cows. Happy cows come from California.

(ergo, those are not happy cows

)

Anyway, nice pictures

Oh they were quite happy...ate dandelions out of my wife's hand and let us pet them

You've never seen a California cheese commercial, have you?

**Alec Trevelyan** · 05-16-2007, 04:38 AM

Oh yes, love those! "Okay, she's on our team!"

You officially rule for liking California cheese commercials

	When you love a pet, loosing it is like loosing a part of your soul. I lost part of mine on Feb 12 2008. Never will it be the same again.
