One of my happiest family vacation memories is going to visit a working farm that also functioned as a petting zoo. I guess I was about 14 or so. The farmer was showing us around and pointed out this lovely Brahma bull in a pen. Of course, I went to "pet" him and the farmer warned me that he wasn't exactly the most friendly of animals-BE CAREFUL. Well, I scratched him between the horns and got the aforementioned big sloppy cow kiss on my right cheek. The look on that farmer's face was priceless!
