"Well that's a... cow...of a different color... For those of you that may have already seen our visiting duo in Ft. Steilacoom Park this morning, please be aware that Animal Control is en route to round them up and return them to their real home as we type. They caused quite a commotion as early morning walkers spied them in the park and we think more than one dog got an extra surprise during their daily constitutional. We can't beat the cuteness factor, that's for sure! Thank you to everyone who let us know about our wandering bovines and hopefully tomorrow's trip to the park will be a little less... Old McDonald's Farm for everyone!"
