The Queen always loved farming and she kept up the tradition of breeding Highland cattle. If you don’t know, the family began doing that back when Queen Victoria sat on the throne. Actually, when she’s out and about on her horses or wandering around the Balmoral estate, she often looks like she found her happy place there. Given all the bad press about her grandson Prince Harry, maybe she wishes she could just farm full-time.

The Royal Highland Show news that she won an award comes amidst fears for her health. Additionally, she probably still mourns he husband Prince Phillip who passed away last year. Actually, they shared a common bond and they both loved the farming lifestyle. Making it even better, it’s the second year in a row that one of their beloved cattle took a major prize home.
