Solar Energizing

The girls depend on the grain and hay these days.
We must have gotten a foot of snow in the past week.

The sun came out and it looked pretty, but the wind made the temp feel like single digits.

The snow has drifted in the lanes, and its pretty tough to walk the dog in the fields.

The kids stayed in and did sprints across the barn.

You can see they have room to get going. And they do!
They go up as much as they go forward.

Do these pictures look surreal??
The cats know how to take advantage of some sun.

They spent it in the shelter of the mud room porch, soaking up the heat.
I finally got the lane clean and the solar power started to melt the rest.
Of course after a warm day tomorrow, more cold and snow on the week-end, but at least the Ice Festival will have good weather.

Your baby goats are so sweet...I'd love to see them running around your barn. Your kitty's pretty sweet, too.
