Piles

It's never a good sign when you step into the hog house on Sunday morning to do chores and you hear water spraying and water is running down the hallway.  Fortunately, it was a quick fix and I got everything back in order without much of a problem.
The drive to church was beautiful, with a six inch blanket of fresh snow covering everything and the sun shining bright.  It was a blessed day in church and we enjoyed an evening of good fellowship as we hosted potluck.

Another 3-5 inches of snow on Tuesday night into Wednesday is starting to make for big piles where we need to clear it.  Fortunately the wind wasn't too strong so the drifts were manageable.  I had to move some snow early this morning so I could get out to load a trailer of hogs at the neighbor's farm.  The hogs loaded fairly easy today, so it went quickly.  I chose to miss the Pork Expo today at the Civic Center because I needed to grind a truck load of feed and didn't want to get behind with the bitter cold weather returning.

Our favorite granddaughter got to sled down one of our snow mountains Saturday night when we babysat for her.

Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.
Mark 5:11
