Keyshill Farm

My Scottish cousins own a farm just outside of Ayr, and I visited them this past weekend. I first came here back in 1993 and again in 2000, and those trips were my first excursions outside the United States. I haven't been back in 9 years, and a lot has changed. Some of my cousins have grown up a lot, which is expected yet surprising. I'll post some more pictures later. Here are some pictures of the farmhands 'freeze branding' some of the cows with metal numbers dipped in dry ice:
