Frozen

Seems like winter has arrived to most of the nation....Some with moisture, some without...We were the without group.
Our high was 25* and the lows around 10*. With the wind, it felt like -4!
Today was beautiful! Blue skies, a light breeze and COLD! A perfect day to hop in the razor and check the stock tanks for ice.

Me and my buddy all geared and getting ready to head out..

Frozen creek.

Ice cubes....Created by water splashing outta the water tank....Kinda cool looking I think....Everything else checked out fine. And I had a wonderful ride!

Hope everyone is staying warm out there!

Hay hauling has been going well....Until today when the fuel pump went out in the tractor!

 They won't have one in until Wednesday afternoon...

I tried to make homemade hot chocolate in the crockpot - OMG what a disaster! LOL! Oh well won't be makin that anymore! :)

Its been cold here. Highs around 50* low 30's over night. They are suppose to drop big time! Highs in the 20's, lows in the teens! BRRRR! I like the blast of cold air in the morning. Its refreshing and wakes you up in a hurry!

Yesterday we started the longggggg, tedious, time consuming hay hauling. We had our blue grass hay delivered. But, we have to haul our own alfalfa. Took the big John Deere to the stack yard and keep the little tractor at the hay barn to unload. The John Deere can handle 2 bales at a time, the little Ford can only handle 1.

The day was beautiful. Blue sky, fluffy clouds about 60*. Then the winds kicked in. I like the winds when they work in my favor and whoosh all the fallen leaves outta here!
With the black sky and sun out. It made the trees light up! So pretty!

Big ugly coming in with a load.

Into the hay barn.

Bandit and Spook waiting too look for rodents! Spook wasn't a happy camper, she had porcupine quills in her face again! grrrrrrrr!

Black clouds and sun.

I don't know why the tree looks like its leaning. It was windy, but not that bad!

Thanks for stopping by.

amazing weather

The past 10 days or so we've had some amazing weather. Its rained a little bit everyday! The old range ground has a tint of green. Hopefully the grass keeps growing and we go into winter with green every where. The daytime temps have been between 50 and 55*. Over night right around 40*.
We've been "remodeling" the front of the barn in preparation for a new hydraulic chute! An upgrade!

Here's a few pictures of the sky the past few days. Its been so pink at sunrise and sunset.

A foggy morning and day.

Pink sunset. Looks like northern lights in the south!

A "pasture" we call The High Rocks.
