A Vacation To See A Famous Grave... Of A Cow

I was listening to music looking for inspiration and nothing was coming to me in the serious songs so I started to dig to the funnies... Granted there is a lot of funny songs. I can think of 20 artists off the top of my head. Then I got to Weird Al and those were the good old days... but that was not it. Then i looked to the left and there it was... The perfect idea! ... yes it was....


That's right .. its.. The Biggest Ball Of Twine In Minnesota! I looked and it is actually true there is a biggest ball of twine it is in Darwin, Minnesota. So I was yay and was going to say here we go to the twine but then I thought... NO! It has been done... Then there it was when I went looking... I have to go one day...

I want to see Elsie the Cow's Grave. She is the famous Bordon's Cow that is still a icon today. Before Joe Camel, before the Energizer Bunny, there was Elsie. Elsie was the spokes animal for Borden Milk, and she became a real cow in 1939. As one of there cows renamed at the worlds fair to be Elsie after fans started to ask if there was a real Cow ... You'll Do Lobelia became Elsie! 



She is still on the cartons today!
