That new calf turned out to be a heifer. I've let it and the cow out to join the herd and they are getting along good. All 8 of them.

A Nice Day
So why not move some more snow. And make a video of it. The wild, insane Northwest wind put up a few hard drifts in places that needed to be cleared. The driveway was swept clean down to the sand and gravel. Since then we have had nothing but strong South East winds. And cold. Today was the first day above freezing for over a week.

I was chuckling at the 'check the driveway' segment. My mother's cousin was a big farmer in southern Minnesota and had a comparably long driveway but with a short radius 90 degree turn at the midpoint. That's where the northwest wind came across the southern MN prairie and dumped. Most winter trips to visit included a retrieval by tractor.
ReplyDeleteThe smart guys made their driveways on a Northwest by Southeast angle so that the prevailing winds would just sweep them clean.
