Cold

It's really cold outside on the farm.  The temperature is negative one degrees.  Thankfully, the sun is out.  That always makes things better.

Farming in the freezing cold weather is hard.  The animal's water freezes in the buckets; its painful, heavy and wet to carry the buckets of frozen, and then swishing, water, to and from the house and the shed.

One benefit of below freezing weather, the animal's poop is frozen, so your boots don't get dirty!  

Farmers always need to be optimistic!

And get this... Sunset today at 4:49...we've gained nine minutes since the last time I checked on when our hot, bright orb heads off to sleep!
