Same old thing

Fed stock. Sat around and played with the grandsons. Let Kass whip me at cribbage. She say’s it’s a first but I doubt it. I have to run Cindy in in the morning for work and get a pump for my loader. The old one leaks pretty bad and the loader sure doesn’t seem toContinue reading “Same old thing”

Our Christmas

We had it yesterday evening when Hope got here from work. Kids opened their presents and there were even a few for the old people. Grandkids got red wagons to share between brothers and we had put one together. They sure had fun. Pushed and pulled each other around the house. They are learning aboutContinue reading “Our Christmas”

Whiners

As Dennis Miller used to say on his TRV show, “I hate to get off on a rant here”, but…… We get a three day doozy of a blizzard. How long has it been since we had one of those in this country at Chriustmas? Been awhile. Setting here this morning reading all the commentsContinue reading “Whiners”

Dying down

I went out yesterday about 3 pm and started diggin’ the tractor out and feed the stock. The wind and snow had let off just a bit. I will go back to it today after the sun comes up. Probably a lot of people will show up here sometime this afternoon.

Still a blizzard

This is the 3rd day of this. Just talked to a friend down south west of here not far from Cheyenne Wy and it sounds like they only have about an inch of snow and lots of wind. We have a drift almost as high as the box on my Dodge Ram 3/4 ton pickup.Continue reading “Still a blizzard”

Your second gift

Feeding in the snow and blowing and cold with a tractor with no cab reminded me of this poem. It’s an oldie but a goody! Hope you like it! I wrote it back in 1993 at Christmas time. It’s all true. The Gift It had been bitter cold, for three long days The wind blewContinue reading “Your second gift”

Merry Christmas!

And here is my gift to you. Only one of many, go and read this, right now! It is wonderful and someday will hopefully be a small part of a greater book! From my friend Jim, probably one of the greatest writers of our time, in my view! http://werdfu.blogspot.com/2009/12/greetings-from-north-pole-part-vii_25.html

Still Wintry

Blowing good out there with gusts up to 40 mph. Here’s some pictures from today. I went up west with the tractor and got two old bales and hauled them home and the cows followed me just like I planned. We were without power from 12:30 pm until a while ago. I had the generatorContinue reading “Still Wintry”

Wintry!

Southeast breeze blowing and they are always cold. I hauled a bale out to the calves and unrolled part of it with the re-built bale unroller yesterday. Seemed to work great. I unloaded the left over part of it at the corral for the colts and team or who ever is in the corral. SoundsContinue reading “Wintry!”
