Snow Day

We woke up to a morning of blowing snow and subzero temperatures.  Mostly in the single-digits with windchill in the -8 to -14 range.  I stayed in most of the day with the exception of a trip out to feed the chickens and horses.  We kept the chickens shut in all day since it was so cold and windy.  They still gave  us three eggs.  One was laid on the floor of the hen house and we didn't find it until late in the day and it had frozen and cracked open.    Steve carried the feed out to the six heifers and ran to town for awhile with Curt.  So happy we have the new wood burning fireplace, it keeps it so toasty and comfortable in the house, so much better than the electric heat.
