Last day of November

And it was a nice one. Not much for wind and temps up in the upper 30’s to 40’s. We are supposed to have some snow coming in tonight and in the morning with high winds. We’ll see. Chance and Hope shipped some cows so we sorted them off this morning and then we eachContinue reading “Last day of November”

Sunday snow pictures

White stuff

Got about 4 to 5 inches of snow. But not much wind right here. Supposed to be warmer tomorrow and a lite breeze out of the south. Sounds like the roads were kind of fun, so glad we didn’t cause many people to be out on them. Cindy and I just stayed around here andContinue reading “White stuff”

Dang

We are supposed to get wind and snow coming in tonight and it’s going to be more snow and wind up in the Hills where were were going to hold the event, When the Works All Done This Fall. So we decided to postpone it to another day. Maybe right after the first of theContinue reading “Dang”

Today’s doin’s!

Real nice day. Cool this morning, but not bad. Little to no wind. Beautiful fall day, but they claim we got some rain and snow coming this afternoon/evening and the wind is supposed to be gusting to 44 mph by midnight, then slowly dying down until tomorrow evening. Cindy is staying in town tonight inContinue reading “Today’s doin’s!”

Town run

Cindy needed some work clothes and shoes and I needed to get my one hearing aid adjusted. We had to run back toContinue reading “Town run”

And I know there are those calving in it who are calling it ano5ther word for fertilizer that starts with a B and has an s in there too! Must be 6 inches anyway. If you like snow balls or buildingContinue reading “Poor man’s fertilizer”

Grandsons

are a lot of work! Who’d a thunk it? But also lots of fun. We pulled the calf sled behind the tractor while we fed. I used the tractor, as it’s a little cold and windy to take them little fellers out there for very long. I can haul two bales in one trip withContinue reading “Grandsons”

Snow! 5 to 8 inches depending on who you talk to. Went over to Delbert’s and got the heifer calves Bangs vaccinated, this morning. Both Dean and I just hauled ours over there to save the vet from having to re-set up at our places. We only had 6 head, so it wasn’t much ofContinue reading “Monday Nov 22, 10”

Nov 17, 10

Well Laura, I hope your happy! It snowed! Not a lot and it’s not real cold out, but we have some white out there. About an inch, that hasn’t melted into the ground yet. I suppose in the Carolina’s this would stop all human progress? Here? Not so much. I got at least one moreContinue reading “Nov 17, 10”
