Snow Day

Wow, snow drifts everywhere. We are in the middle of a major winter storm. We had at least 12 - 14 inches of snow last night and with the blowing snow lots of drifting. We closed the cafe today so I'm just going to call it a snow day. I spent about an hour trying to clean off sidewalks so hopefully will have customers tomorrow. I was suppose to get a grocery truck in today, but they cancelled and should deliver tomorrow. I though I lived in Oklahoma, but I'm starting to believe it's Colorado or Vermont!I think we should advertise ski Oklahoma, but there is only one problem--we don't have any mountains.

chased cattle

It's Super Bowl Sunday and we were out chasing cattle all afternoon! We had a good day planned, but everything went awry. We had eaten a late breakfast at the cafe and headed home. Gripey Joe decided to check the steers he has running on wheat pasture while we were driving back. Yes, we farm - run cattle- and run a cafe! Anyway, he noticed some of the cattle were out so we proceeded to wrangle them back in on foot. Well, two hours later we finally got them back in their original pasture. That was after we treaded through snow drifts, muddy creeks and lots of yelling. All this and not to mention the shock we both got from the electric fence. I headed back to the house to ,but Joe spent the rest of the afternoon fixing electric fence as well as pulling electric fence out of snow banks. He finally made it back for the Super bowl half-time,what a relaxing afternoon!
