"It's cold, and it's getting colder....

It's gray and white and winter all around
And oh, I must be getting older
And all this snow is trying to get me down."  Winter lyrics by John Denver. 

The thermometer reads 2 degrees with a windchill reading of -20 degrees Fahrenheit. This kind of weather is hard on me and the livestock. I came home from work a little early today so that I could get hay to the goats and cows and be sure the pigs had plenty of bedding. My tractor doesn't have headlights so I wanted to get done before it was too dark to see. After an hour and a half outside, I was ready to come in and thaw. The cows, pigs and goats get to stay outside. Sorry guys!
