Winter for the ranch has been kind of laid back, long and cold. Joseph is currently working on the pellet stove (which is our main source of heat). The horses are very fuzzy and have enjoyed not working much.
And over Christmas, we got Sam and Rusty a new pal. We call him Hal. He is another Great Pyrenees. He is young and came to us through the Idaho Humane Shelter. We are so glad to get him. And he's really glad to be here on the ranch. He and Rusty have become great friends. I will try to post a picture of him later today.
Our chickens have done very well. They are all feathered up and glossy. They did quit laying for awhile, but have started laying again with the longer days.
We are looking forward to spring. We have been filling our calendar up with dates for the spring and summer, and we have the link to our new Google Calendar on our website. Really cool!
I have been told to mention the fact that we had to dig our cars out of the snow drifts back in January. Maybe next year we'll post a sign at the entrance "Have snowshoes all who enter here--because your car isn't going to get very far." It shows real community spirit when your friends will help you to dig out of the snow.
