Still -38 when we started unloading. Hydraulic hoses to transfer auger were a little stiff.

Looks like a nice sunny morning anyway.

Was a beauty day. Got up to -22 for a half hour. Could enjoy it more if my cold hadn't come back.

How do you protect your eyes from the glare and the cold ?

What is that blue above the truck? Haven't seen that in 2+ weeks and looking at the forecast not for another 10 more days at least.

I suppose I have no right to complain about 20F and sunny tomorrow here in NE TX.

Thats chilly! We started out with a wind chill of -28. We had -29 Monday. But after the sun came up today we had a ground blizzard with winds over 80 mph.

Pea and lentil screenings pellets. They run from 17 to 22% protein. Lots of fat in them.

Just a shed we built. Rubber belting over a tarp on the floor. Shortly before calving we switch to alfalfa hay for added protein and convert the shed into a maternity barn. Feeding pellets in mud or dry dirt leaves too much waste. We roll up the belting and move it outside.
