Here we go. Here come the million and one excuses why the simplest, most
obvious, most cost effective solution cannot possibly work. Here come the
million and one suggestions of convoluted, contrived, complicated,
expensive, impossible methods to solve an otherwise simple benign problem.

I know, let's genetically engineer some giant wood nymphs to patrol the
fence line 24/7 and chase the cows away!

Look, it's either you have dead cows in your pool every other day, or you
lose some of the view. These cattle are NOT going to stop for anything that
is not solid and/or electrified.

If you want the view, get a bigger pool skimmer.


Yep, I got the clear impression that she isn't interested in any
reasonalbe ideas a couple days ago.

The cattle guard has been mentioned a half dozen (and now 7) times, and
it's cheap, easy, effective, and won't block the view.
