Jewel arrives calving Kato three weeks later

Miraculous, we think so. We were going to use our little trailer and new, low gas mileage truck to drive to get the new 3/4 Brown Swiss x 1/4 Holstein, conveniently near my parents in Payette, ID. The day before, pastor Dean offered his nice, newer diesel truck, and another friend offered a much better and safer trailer. We made the drive in comfort, got great mileage, and finished the round trip without incident. Oh, and another friend paid for the cow, unexpectedly, as part of a broader investment in the efforts here. We were blessed - it is a joy to participate in God's work building community, with community! Thanks to all for the help and love!
Jewel's calf Kato was born on 11/10/20, without incident, though it was cold, so his first night was spent in the laundry room where we caught his first "pie" on a towel.... She freshened at 5 gallons/day. Excitedly, we tested her and found she was A2/A2.
