Hi everyone! Glad to be introducted to the thread. My husband and I live outside of Milaca where it is cold and blustery at the moment, as I'm sure many of you are also experiencing.
We have around 30 chickens and a handful of ducks among all the other animals on the farm.

We are very close. I am outside Milaca also. About 30 miles outside of it.

Nice day today. I am hoping to see my bees out and about.

I am guessing most of you are digging out of 4 ft of snow, here in the banana belt we have had nothing,


A light dusting that wasn’t heavy enough to be a dusting. It was so light that I got chewed out for letting the chickens poop on the deck,

I tried explaining chickens poop wherever they want. The WW did not listen.

You clearly sent the snow to the northern region of the Banana belt. (Central MN)

We are enduring 8-14 inches. 8 was yesterday.

Really Ralphie? None?? I don't know how much we have gotten but I've been shoveling for two days here. If I have to guess it's 10 to 12 inches.

We have an inch or two today but it’s hard to tell as it’s blowing so bad.
