Lily and Mitch getting ready to go for a ride
It’s funny how quickly oddities become the norm around the farm. Although I suppose that is true of anyone’s life, since anything can become ‘normal’ after experiencing it enough. A regular sight around here these days is Lily riding in the gator. That’s right. IN the gator! Not in the back, not running alongside, but right there in the front passenger seat. When she rides with JT, I even see her strapped in with a seatbelt so that he doesn’t have to worry about her falling out.

It really is quite the comical sight, something that just makes you shake your head and chuckle. I’ve always felt that something is truly funny if it has the ability to make you laugh out loud when no one else is around to hear you. Lily in the gator is definitely one of those things.
