Storm on

[oldE]

The horses still need to be fed and watered when it is minus eighteen (with a wind chill to minus thirty one ). I was just grateful the five inches of powder that landed in my driveway the other day all blew away again.

You have longer days in summer, and (as a farmer) build up huge stockpiles in summer to get you through the winter, and when winter comes, you occupy indoors with great things most people never get to do as they always spend time off in their summer to "vacation" instead of work longer/harder.

Huh? ???

This is a project started years ago. When it was going Viral, lots of people couldn't understand how a person could have the time or interest to do this.

I was referencing that some people can keep working on a hot rod because of a winter storm.

Not "WAS" going to hotrod

Other places in the world, if they suddenly had your weather, would be shut down and not doing anything. Instead, for you, and the area you live, there is a life stile of setting up work to do indoors when the weather is bad, as you can always count on frigid weather every winter.

This may be part of why there are a lot of great northern artful wood carvings and stone work, but very little of that on the Florida coast.

One picture is the raw from my camera, the other has been edited so you can actually see.
