Mrs. Greg- Close the Back Door

Somebody up north left the back door open---BRRRRRRRR....Last two days have been miserable... 20-30 mph winds and plumb cold...Only 2 above when the sun came up this morning and only 8 above now at noon with about a 15 below chill factor...

Fed the neighbors cows a couple bales- and it was chilly...

I been getting everything set up to bring my cows down tomorrow to put on hay meadows-- but don't think it will take much gathering them- as they know its time and been moving toward the corrals....

At least the Sitz sale is on TV- I can stay out of the cold and watch the Angus Mafia swap $25,000-$30,000 bulls back and forth between themselves :wink: :lol:

Sounds like you both need to keep yer dang doors closed. Just a hair over the freezing mark tonight with a nice SW breeze. Snowfall warning in effect, but we can use some snow.

It's minus two degrees here at the moment. The moon is shining, there is no wind, and it's rather a pretty evening otherwise. :)

It would have been a nice day here if the wind wasn't blowing and it was warmer. :wink: :D

It can get cold in the sunny south, also. If a person lived in one town in Mississippi, it would be "two below" all the time. :wink:

i'm afraid old man winter is picking right up were he left off last year :roll: It's a cold one here, already in the low teen's with a nice snow pack outside.

A part of me misses getting up in the middle of the night to do a paper route that provided some extra income. I love winter (yeah, i'm weird), being out in the cold seemed to toughen this old city slicker up a bit.

-20c and no wind here the last 3 mornings, -8 now and chance of snow tommorow. We could use a little to cover up the ice. Not too much I've got another 100 bales to haul off a meadow that was too soft to haul in Sept, finally has enough frost in the ground to hold me up.

Snow.....winter......I've heard it said that snowmobiles give drunks an excuse to get some fresh air. :D

Our thermometer moved the right direction during the night. A few hours ago it was five below. Now it stands at seven above. Any improvement is welcome. :)

And now Mr. Greg has to fix the big crack in the sidewalk- eh :wink: :lol: :p
Luckily the rain and snow stayed pretty much west or south of us...Did get some wind this afternoon (30 mph) but the temp got up to 46- so it didn't feel as bad....
Temp is still 38 tonight..... :D
