Heard thru the grapevine...
______________
A big city boy preaching in a small country town wanted to learn
everything “country” so that he could fit in. As he was searching for
Rural Living hobby farm, he got lost on the back roads. He saw a farmer
walking into his barn so he stopped for directions.
The farmer was just beginning to milk his cow but took time out to tell the young man how to get
to the Rural Living hobby farm. “By the way, ” he asked, “Do you know
what time it is?” The farmer leaned in to the udder of the cow and said,
“12:30.”
The young man started to leave but he just HAD to
know. He told him, “Hey, I’ve just moved from the city and I really want
to know the ways of the country. How could you tell what time it was?”
“Sit right here on this stool, son.” The young man did.
“Now, grab hold of that udder.” the young man. (Before this, his closest experience to this was grabbing a milk carton).
“Now lean into the cow and lift up on the udder.” He did.
“Lean over and look right over there on that wall. See that’s a clock. When the little hand is on the 12…”A little farm humor
