A Ton of Hay and Freezing Rain

These beautifully looked after cows shared their hay with us..

They are the most contented bunch of dairy  cows I have ever met. cows-005

And with a huge thank you and sigh of relief we are once more in good shape as far as feed goes. cows-023

Everyone is pleased, most especially The  Murphy’s who are already chewing and tasting   everything they see like babies.cows-027

As I write this morning freezing rain has begun to fall. Yesterday I dug  the North door out of the mud, so it would slide but I hate to lock our trio of sheep in.  cows-031

It seems the forecast weather has come and it will be blowing nastiness in  that door. So i have to get out there before it is frozen open. It has been open all winter so far!cows-034

So I am going to say good morning and run straight out my own door to close that barn door and nail a sheet of iron over the gap. We will have a longer chat tomorrow.

Frozen drafts are not good for babies. Actually everyone hates frozen drafts. Me included.

Have a lovely day, I think we are going to get flicked with a bit of precipitation from this storm.  But whichever moisture falls from the sky it will be good for our spring fields.
