Magical Coo

Donald, our local bus driver, parks the bus and grabs the microphone to speak over the intercom. “If you walk to your right, you’ll find coffee shops and gift stores. If you want to see the hairy coos, head down the road with the houses and you’ll find them in the fields. Hairy coos are native to the highlands in Scotland and are said to have magical healing powers”. To translate from Donald’s thick accent, a hairy coo is meant to be a hairy cow. And magical healing powers?! This couldn’t have come at better timing. The night before, I jammed my big toe during the game causing some major swelling and bruising to take over. Walking is no easy task for me. We also have a game tomorrow which means I have very limited time to fix this foot before kick off. A magical healing cow is just what I need.

We parted the hair on this coo to see their eyes which are generally completely covered by their hair.
