Yesterday evening the temperature dropped to 2 degrees with a high of 9 degrees on Thanksgiving Day. Today the low was 5 degrees with a high of 19 degrees. The windchill was a brisk -15 degrees!
We have had 4 storms this November here in NE Minnesota that have dropped 4 inches of snow or more. For goodness sakes it isn't even December yet. I was worried about the animals making it through the Winter this year but this is ridiculous.
With this in mind I give you the following video, enjoy.
Sorry about Florida and Big Oaks Farm Mary but there will be plenty of room for you up here!
Oh for PETE'S sake! You poor thing - we've been told that we're supposed to have a really hard winter this year, too - and, like you, we got our first "hit" while it was still fall, but our snow and temps haven't been anywhere NEAR what you're getting! Hang in there - you're doing everything you can to keep your sweet critters warm and safe!
FarmGirl, I appreciate your encouragement, trying my best to make sure everyone is comfortable. On your next post I am expecting it to begin with; "Oh For Reggie's Sake...", just for balance.
I am an Ocicat. My duties include; security (rodents), counter intelligence (predators), infiltration (sneaking) and night surveillance.
I live in NE Minnesota on 10 wooded acres with; my best friend Mocha, three dogs, chickens, Guinea Hens, Nigerian Dwarf Goats, Cascade Sheep, Icelandic sheep, and a few humans.
When we moved here it was completely wooded, our plan is to turn this property into a working homestead.
Cute video! Set the flamingos free!
ReplyDeleteLOL That's hilarious!
ReplyDeleteAccuweather's long range forecast said you guys were in for it this year. I'm so glad your animals are tucked into the gorgeous barn you put in.
I think you even insulated it, didn't you? You did such a good job on it.

Faith, The newspaper has a story reporting that so far this Fall we have had 27 inches of snow - second only to the 1991 record of 45 inches!
ReplyDeleteSchoonover/Lynn - The video is a parody of the song "If I had a Million Dollars", so once I hear it I can't get it out of my head!
Brrrr that's cold - so I shouldn't really complain about the heat here!

GrandPa, I like the snow, but not this much!
