This past weekend I had the privilege to participate in the first voyage of “Bessie” the cow through the world famous Ballard Locks.  Ballard Locks is a very popular tourist destination in Seattle.  The Dairy Farmers of Washington took the bold and courageous decision to float “Bessie” through the Ballard Locks in celebration of June Dairy Month.  We handed out cheese, chocolate milk, and coffee flavored milk beverages to the many visitors and spectators at the maiden voyage of “Bessie”.  Never before has such a large cow made her way through the Locks ~ stay tuned for future voyages of “Bessie”.  You never know where she may turn up next.
