From professor to 'dairy-maid': The story of Narisa Waldo and her dairy farm
WOOD COUNTY, TX (KLTV) -
Life on a picturesque dairy farm in East Texas may seem like a quiet, idyllic life; the kind of life many might only dream of.
However, for NaRisa Waldo, it is her real life, and though it's sometimes quiet out in rural Wood County, it is far from boring.
Ris, as she is known to friends, has not been a dairy farmer all her life. In fact, she has her PhD in nursing and spent eight years as a professor at UT Tyler, but she says she began to feel unfulfilled.

MINEOLA, Tx (KETK)+ - Owners of the Waldo Way Dairy Farm in Mineola say they've had it up to here with the Texas Department of State Health Services.
