we have not seen snow like that inongtime.this year its COLD/WIND that is killing us here.we are not used to temps like 11 degrees to 22 degrees.everyone wanted me to go hunting today at 15 degrees and 45 mph winds.
no way, yet thats a great time to out fox a nice buck.
When it crusts over and I can walk on top it isn't so bad. The kids can walk on top but I had one to many Dinners and I sink in to deep

I am going to invest in snow shoes though. It's a chore sometimes just to try and get the chores done. I'm still trying to come up with a plan to get hay in for the goats and milk cow. I should have brought more from the far pasture during good weather but I was to busy hunting. Now I'm in trouble with the wife if her milk cow runs out of hay
