So my family had lived there more or less forever. Immediately surrounding Milton was the land where crops and animals were raised. And that's where Hudson first became aware that what happened, and where and when, were important. Well, it has to do with dairy farming. In other words, hay nourishes cows.
Cows produce milk.
Milk nourishes people. People grow hay. I took that for granted. I think if I had grown up in another place, I wouldn't have. Some people couldn't care less and would be bored to tears if you told them.
