My Last Roundup
Well I am finally out of the cattle business as of Jan 27, 2025. First time in about 120 years that there have been no cattle on the farm. I will miss them but its a relief not to have to chores in the miserable winter we get sometimes. Not to have to worry about them breaking out of the fences into neighbour's crops. Prices are about the best they have been historically so that helps too.

Blogger makes it way too difficult to post the actual youtube video from my channel here but you can see it on the Roosty6 channel under title My Last Roundup.

Climate Hell?
That is the latest headline from the climate ninnies. Warning that we have just experienced the hottest May in recent history.
Meanwhile, back in the world where I live, its 62 degrees in my house and I'm wearing a hoodie to keep warm. If it was January I'd be turning on the furnace to warm the house up but I refuse to do it on the sixth of June! Yesterday's 'high temp" was about 60 degrees outdoors and with the raging NW wind it was downright cold outside. Good weather if you are digging ditches or shovelling grain but otherwise its winter boots and lined jackets over coveralls.
Really wonder if I'm living on the same planet sometimes.

Jan 18 diesel test
I wonder if this will work. My lazy man's way of making a blog post. Just shot this video less than an hour ago. Its still colder and miserable than normal even for Sask.

Warmest Year Yet???
Interesting co-incidence that I woke up to the coldest day yet this winter at -15F. While in the background "climate change radio" (CBC) comes out with the headline that 2023 was the hottest year on record. Theres times I really need to turn the radio off. I can remember one hot day last summer. Canada Day, July 1 was aboout 90F so I decided it was too warm to drive the Merc to the local car show. Other than that I don't remember any extreme heat. Fall harvest, if anything seemed cool and damp. I'll agree that December was well above normal temps and hardly any snow. I guess that is the "warm spell" that has thrown the average temp for the year into the above normal category.
I miss the days when all we had to worry about was pollution and the coming ice age. (1960s)
In the meantime I'll keep warm by the burning fire.

Price of Beef
FB won't let us share news on there platform anymore so I'll just have to make do with here and Twitter, or "X" as somebody re-named it.
Seems the climate fanatics think we can save the world by stopping raising cattle and eating beef.

Ok, guess blogger follows the same rules and won't make it easy to share.
