Wind has slowly been going down. Got out there this morning and finally got the bale unroller mounted on the tractor (no, we couldn’t do that in good weather. Why that would just make way to much sense) We had to re-work the hydrolics so iot would work. Dug around and got a bale on the back and headed up west while Chance rode up there to look around. Couldn’t cross the creek so came back and went another way and dropped the rear tire off the edge of the crossing. So here I set and wait for a neighbor to come help me get it out. All the livestock seems to have come thru’ in good shape from what we can see so far.
Thanks all for your thoughts and prayers.
I hear we got about 2 feet of snow. Big drifts, lots of them and where it blew the snow mostly free it’s a crusted over ice, but the cattle were trying to paw thru it. Horses had gnawed quite a bit of wood waiting in the corral.
All in all, we are very lucky, seems to me. Thanks Lord. 🙂
UPDATE- 4 pm. Just came in the house. Dean and Brad came and we finally got the tractor out! Hauled a couple bales to the cow/calf pairs and horses. Yearling’s get hay in the morning! It’s great to live in a country where you got good neighbors! Thanks Dean and Brad!
I am so sorry for your weather woes! What misery. Hope it gets better soon. And you know, I can’t put plastic on my windows in good weather either…got to wait until the staple gun freezes to my hand and the wind is howling a gale. Don’t know what there is about that.
