The coldest day and night of the season is upon us. The thermometer says zero as I write. The overnight low is expected to be minus 15 degrees F. The snow crunches under my feet and my fingers stiffen in my gloves… Baby it’s cold outside!
I really like winter. The whole ice and snow thing thrills me. The starlit sky tonight looked awesome as I went about evening chores. The horses ran around and played a little on the snow covered feedlot, but did not hesitate when it was time to come in.
I fluffed up all the beds and gave a little extra feed tonight, as I did my evening chores. It was peaceful and the wind was not blowing. The animals ate and drank and quickly found a warm spot to settle into. I likewise headed for the warm house, thankful that I have one 😮

Hello Ralph This must share with you. I get your blog posts via email whenever you put out a new post. I’m in Denver right now, and earlier today I was thinking about you. I was thinking about Surewood Forest and how cold it is there and I had this thought of the song “baby it’s cold outside”. And I thought to myself, did Ralph post that no I don’t think so, that would be a good post for him to use right now. A few hours later, here comes your post entitled Baby it’s cold outside!!!!!!!
I know we both share the belief of connections via God or the Universe or whatever we want to call it but if that doesn’t prove it I don’t know what does
Bless you John
