We're supposed to be getting 6-10" Sunday night into Monday here in Indy. For 12 consecutive weekends we have had measurable amounts of snow. I like winter but am pretty sick of snow at this point. Leaving for a week in Florida the week after next, hopefully when we come back the snowy season will be over.

More on the way in Virginia Monday and Tuesday. I tried outrunning it between SC and VA but I always get stuck in the middle.
In about 4 months we'll all be bisching about how hot and dry it is with no rain.
Two things we have no control over are time and the weather.

Whats funny is that I just walked back into the house after putting wood in the furnace and was going to start a thead called "Al Gore can kiss my azz". Have had a fire burning in the stove since the last week of October and we are expecting more snow and single/- digit temps all week again. Global warming, bring it on

Minus 5, 30 MPH wind and the cows need fed. Glad I'm not a cow.

Just another day in paradise. Dogs didn't wander too far from the pickup today..grin ![[Linked Image]](http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e78/montanasam/Winter2013013-3.jpg) Plugged water filter this morning, well pits are nice and warm though. We are giving the cows all they can eat and then some. Cold really burns up the calories. At least we don't have any snow left, that is really nice.

My pussy hurt after the first stand this morning.
Other than that, I'm fine.
Hope calving goes well for you SammO! Looks like it's gonna warm up next week.

Flave!
Dude, I am getting excited about the warm-up.
Perfect timing for calving!
Hopefully it holds but no doubt one more cold snap.
Little breeze here this morning, not bad. As you know, makes all the difference in the world.
Blanket, keep those cows happy!

I was checking heifers last night (had 3), I'd get up to go, pulling on my boots in the mud room and the dogs were looking up at me with a look of; "we ain't going out there with you." They managed to go though. Snowed all night and was in the single digits. Been snowing most of the day. The cavvy is excited about the weather too. ![[Linked Image]](http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e338/brstam/image_zps05d306ad.jpg)

The old story on cows is, "You take care of them, and they'll take care of you." Is that an adage for ranchers, or a dirty joke? Serious question. Travis

Adage, I'm sure.
It should be fairly obvious.
