Hurricane Farm

-15º F at our farm this morning.  Pretty cold out.  Just about too cold for our car, much too cold for our on-demand hot water heater in the basement.  But just about right for the animals, so it seems.  Last night the pigs were chasing each other about in their outer pen, seeming to ignore the cold.  Meanwhile, I was trying to scurry about to keep my hands and feet from freezing. 

VERY glad to have a woodstove in the workshop on a day like this.  I will be making multiple, short runs from there to the stalls and back to feed and clean the animals this cold evening.

This stuff is worth its weight in gold, as it were, on days like this.
