That's the 'old' stuff. Now it's all about robotic milkers. We are positively last century with our tie stalls and hang 'em high milkers (the ones with the hooks that Anna was complaining about - yep, entanglement!).
Hi Mary, I'm still here, just quiet. I've left the moderator's job for good. Just too much in my life right now. There was a horse pull/benefit for Melissa and the kids today. I love farming communities. It was sponsored by the Amish church and the Stateline Draft Horse Association (I may not have that quite right), food, a Chinese auction (why 'Chinese' I don't know) and a horse pull. 300 chickens went out the door nicely barbequed and there were hamburgers and fries, ice cream, pies, baked goods and Amish iced coffee - lots of milk and chocolate or caramel with whipped cream. I'm not a coffee drinker, but I've been told their coffee is near lethal.
