Oy! Blind Hog and Acorn have readied the farm for the upcoming hard, deep freeze. One day might have highs in the single digits and lows? Minus whatever… Been there, done that- they know what they need to do.
chicken coop heated water pan 
kidding pen 
spiral wire panel connectors are the best 
someone found the blow dryer 
Skuld is looking right pufft up 
Verdandi has a way to go yet 
antenna hack in process 
goat spy cam 
another camera view
Of course, the dairy goats might go into labor next week when the vortex settles in- let’s hope not!
Blind Hog has been Mr Electrician, wiring in the new receptacles for the welder and plasma cutter. Acorn has been busy doing other stuffs, including kidding pen set-up and freeze-proof watering for the geese, chickens, goats and cows. All is ready!
Zucchini bread is a great way to use that shredded summer squash you loaded in the freezer. You DID shred and freeze surplus squash, right? Recipe link is here..
Mmmmmmm….. 
most excellent, even toasted!
BTW- Acorn fixed the microphone issue from last week, just a matter of the input source being changed after the computer did a system upgrade- back to the desired settings!
That Florida Run of 2000 brought back all kinds of memories. We have had our share of harsh winters, seems the temps are colder and the precip is markedly less here in the Ozarks than it was back in Boone.
Snow in the “meadow” where vehicles were parked- our house was 1/4 mile (uphill) behind where I was standing taking the picture. 
Badger was ready to get the hell out of Dodge 
How long did we wait for this ride? Nonetheless. Priceless.
