You should hear some of the things adult tourist visitors to our little resort town ask:
"Those cows are so picturesque. Do you just rent them for the season? Or are they here all the time."
"What day to the leaves change color?"
"I have a sick raccoon in my Volvo and wondered if I should take it to the vet. I think we've bonded." (It was rabid...)
"Where can we go so my daughter can ride a moose? Is there an animal park here?"
They get worse....
When tourists ask what I do on my farm (it's non-working at this point), my response is: "We are the largest supplier of Milk Whitener in the Northeast." Which always results in a conversation in which I end up asking the rhetorical question: "You don't think it comes out of the cows that way? I mean... they're cows!" I can give a 20-minute treatise on the mining, processing, packaging, distribution and mixing of calcite-based refined, food-grade, mineral, non-hormone milk-whitener additive. Patent pending.
I mean, you don't think it comes out of the cows like that?
This is what we do with 11 months of winter and 1 month of bad sledding.

And one I heard while standing on the docks in Athens, Greece (from a fat American tourist woman)
"Whats wrong with these people? Why dont they speak english?"
