Weather Update From High Mountain Farm

For those of you who are wondering about the weather up here today, all I can say is Brrrrrrrrrrrrrr. The high is 23F and it is about 1:30pm The wind and snow have been ferocious. Mr. B went out and gave the goats some hay in their feeder. They hate it when it rains or snows because they don't like to get their feet wet. I know that sounds strange but it's true and they're all the same way. You can barely get them out of the goat house when the weather is bad. They just stand at the door and cry.

If you look closely at the picture to the left, you can see The Dawg standing about the middle looking toward the house. The Great Pyrenees don't seem to mind the cold and they have lots of fur to help keep them warm and dry.

Early November Snow

Once again, Snow covers the ground on High Mountain Farm. This early November Snow doesn't equal the first one of the season but none the less it brings a renewed sense of urgency and preparation. Winter is right around the corner now and it's almost hog killing time. Already Mr. B, my husband, is talking about home made biscuits and fresh tenderloin. Although the fresh pork tends to run my blood pressure up, who can resist the smell of frying meat on the ol' cook stove.
