Cold. But not too bad. Got up to 3 and just a lite breeze. I kept the team in when I got done feeding so the other horses could eat with out the team picking on them. Brad brought Lena home yesterday. Rode her down. In the cold. Dang kids! π So a little whileContinue reading “1/10/11”

We got about 3 inches of fluffy snow last night. Cindy had to push snow most of the way to town this morning and when she got to a hill at the Courthouse she couldn’t get going again. Her car has some kind of Traction Control that won’t allow the ties to spin, so itContinue reading “1/9/11”

Cindy brought Hope and the boys out Thursday evening. They rode with me to Newell to get the beef we butchered a few weeks ago. Over $400 to process a beef. Tate had sold half to some guys he works with so what they paid about paid for the processing charge. That leaves me withContinue reading “1/8/11”

Got the chores outside done and now on to the inside chores. I caught both Halflinger fillies the last two mornings and worked with just a little. Wren is almost a pet and likes attention. Just like her brother. RillΒ is standoffish and really doesn’t want to be messed with but once you have herContinue reading “1/5/11”

T’ain’t fitten’ out there! When I looked it was 9 above, but a hard northwest wind blowing about 30 mph. When I was last in the big city, I went to a popular outdoor store, that has stores all over, but who shall remain nameless. I looked and hunted and talked to supposedly “experts” tellingContinue reading “Thursday 12/30/10”

This year is about shot and sounds like it is going out with a bang. We are supposed to have howling winds, very low temps and snow. Looks like a New Years Eve blizzard is approaching. The man who fixes my stove came yesterday and after much mumbling and grumbling (he mumbled, I grumbled) itContinue reading “Wednesday 12/29/10”

Wow! Nice day out! Must have gotten almost up to 40. Got snow melting, getting ready to turn to ice when the high is 5 above in a few days. I suppose I am going to have to get a guy here to shoe my horses. I had decided that if it was going toContinue reading “12/27/10”

Winter Solstice. first day of winter, on the calender, but we figure winter has been here for a month at least. Shortest amount of daylight for the year.Β It’s about 4:30 as I type this and almost dark. If it wasn’t for the full moon rising, it would be dark, I think. From now on,Continue reading “12/21/10”
