[QUOTE="ArrowHBrand, post: 586681, member: 6496"] Here around the Arrow H we have the last of the hay stacked up in the loft and are going into winter with the least amount of livestock to feed ever. We have sold off all of the cattle due to $5 corn and our time demanding jobs and two year old son. It was sad to see the last two heifers leave, but I went and picked one up today again, from the locker! Grass fed T-bones sizzling off the grill were so awesome tonight I can't even begin to explain! With only six horses left, one is sold but won't be picked up until I get him green broke, chores will be quick for once this winter. For us we see winter as a time for taking it easy and a much needed rest. We always try to cram as many projects into the months from thaw to frost. Right now we are trying to get a stretch of posts in before freeze up and then we can put up the rest of the fencing after snowfalls. Equipment has been winterized but the tractor needs repair before we can put on the bucket and tire chains. Hunting season has begun and at the end of the month when pheasant season opens things will really pick up. Harvest is in full swing and I love seeing the combines rolling along because it will make it much easier to pattern deer! How's everyone else buttoning down the hatches for winter? [/QUOTE]
