From Farmer Dave: Got up early.  Yes, it’s true, most farmers get up early.  Although based on the traffic going by the house in the dark hours, lots of non-farmers are getting up early too.  Milked and fed the cows, fed the pigs, chickens, turkeys and sheep… no milking involved there.  Put the milk away, washed the milker and got the milk in the cooler.  No bottle washing today.  Let me tell you, want to score points with your farmer, return your bottles in a timely fashion.  Want to really score points, return them clean.  Yep, that really does it.  Nothing kills the joy of a morning like having to wash bottles.
