Frozen Water Tank


Last week I talked about the nice weather we've been having... and at the moment it's 5 degrees and it's snowing. I'm sure my newletter readers up north would think that is warm compared to what they are enduring today, while readers in Florida are wearing shorts and enjoying warm sun!

I drove over to the work pens an hour ago when I saw the cows were walking in for water. Sure enough the little drinking cup in the top of the water tank had ice in it because it had been overnight since they were last in for water. It only takes me one "knock and flip out the chunk of ice" with a screw driver while it's more work for them to have to lick it out, so I got out into the cold to help them out.
