Thankful Thursday

                     

                            It was a little easier to take those bitterly cold temperatures this month

                                                      when we received the gift of snow.

I am thankful for the beautiful snow days.

The blanket of snow makes everything look so pretty.

 Even though the daily  chores continue

regardless of the weather, there is  a joy in 

the beauty a snowy day provides.

The cows are fed a little more hay and grain  to

 meet their nutritional needs during extreme cold weather.

Big round hay bales are  unrolled to  provide a soft,

 warm place for cows to rest during snowy weather.  

Checking water hydrants and breaking ice on the ponds when

necessary are also part of the snowy day protocol.

                                            

                                             While I'm hoping for another snow day this year,

                                                               I'm thankful for this one!
