Rain, Rain and More Rain

We have a storm coming in AGAIN!  I guess it is winter, oops late fall, but ….I really was enjoying the sun.  The storm is supposed to hit here this evening with blowing rain and snow.

This is the storm getting closer and closer to us.  You can see Hay Stack Mountain in the clouds.  Once the storm leaves the canyons, it will head our way….

Then to top all of that out, the neighbor’s spring’n heifers (20 in number) broke through the fence, we had to round them up and take them home.

But on a happier note, the cow that was down at Misty’s is experiencing ‘herd action’ again.  The baby thinks this is a big world and having a ball.

This is what the dr. said.It has been 3 1/2 yrs. and they keep a real close eye on me.So far all scans have come back, no sign of disease.! Yeah ! I am a blessed and lucky lady that is for sure. So I guess I can put up with the no strength problem it left me with.My cancer was in my esophagus,right behind my heart.

  11. That’s a beautiful view of Hay Stack Mountain. I’m sorry about the storm headed your way. They are predicting crappy weather for us thursday – we saw the sun today and it sure was nice to hit 40.

    Those are good looking heifers. I wouldn’t mind having a few of them in my pasture :) I have an angus/cross milk cow…she’s a peach and is preparing to have her calf….maybe tonight :)
