I don't know about you, but I think it would be great fun to plug-into the head of this bull to eavesdrop on his thoughts. Certainly he couldn't be thinking of greener pastures. Oh, yeah, I suppose he might be thinking of his girlfriends. Or perhaps more close to reality -- nothing at all...

Shown here is Drake's Bay at Point Reyes, taken from the little one-lane road that goes down to the Chimney Rock area.

Years ago a local dairy, Clover Milk, featured their mascot "Clo-the-Cow" in a series of billboard advertisements using all sorts of cute slogans and catchy phrases. One of my favorite was an illustration of Clo sort of dressed up to look like a typical scientist, with a caption reading; "Clo, out-standing in her field"

And yes, San Francisco is a destination for animals of the human kind. They come from all over -- mostly from Europe and Asia -- many Americans can't afford a trip to San Francisco right now. Good thing I only live about twenty miles away.
