I love new boots

That don't slide on ice

I love leg warmers

And flannels.

I love ice on cedars

And diamonds on fences

I love feeding cattle

Who don't care

What I wear

I love new damp babies

Big brown baby eyes

And tiny hooves ending

The warm fur

And the promise of sun.

Making Tracks...

to break the ice,

and feed the stock.

Feeding waits for no weather condition.

Feeding Cattle After Dark

They do run a little since you have managed to be two hours late to feed them!  It is a good thing we are in the Mule.  These spots are bugs, wonderful bugs everywhere.  It is a good idea to keep your mouth closed while driving to feed.

Confused, at first,

they find the feed.

We may have been late

but better late than never.

The Snow Is Leaving

The imperfections that it covered are obvious once again.

The snow hangs on in cool spots

and the chores continue.

We are left with organic gold for the garden...

and mud.

Lots of mud!
