Rain and more rain for the next few days. At least it is softly falling rain and not bitter cold. It's getting a chance to soak in where it is needed. The free ranging chickens are taking it in stride searching for bugs. With the warm temps we have there will be fresh tender grass soon.

Good morning, DMC. Of everyone here, I'm sure you will appreciate the weekend the most.

Yep

Hi IM!

Good afternoon everyone still dragging along here

Hi Sue!

We had a cow processed and picked it up today. OMG was that expensive. It was $3700 for the cow and processing. We got just about 500 lbs of meat. We weighed it as we were putting it in the freezer since it wasn’t broken down on paper. There must be a lot of waste with fat and bone. I know we pay more because it’s vacuum sealed, but holy smokes! We had the same place last year and they did a great job. We are giving the boys 1/4 cow each for Christmas.

A couple of hours later she sent me this picture View attachment 3681342 She hit a buck just as she came down off the mountain. She's fine, but the same can't be said for her vehicle.

I'm so glad she is okay Chrissy. She took in some gorgeous scenery.

That doesn't sound too bad to me, especially since it is vacuum sealed. Lucky boys! That should save them some grocery money.

It’s $800 more then last year and I thought that was bad. I’ll get over it.

Hi Sue, hope you're having some pretty fall weather.

Yes, the weather is fairly nice, chilly in the morning but that's okay

Hi Sue. How are you?

Hi Janie, I'm okay I guess, busy getting rid of tons of stuff and have the bruises to show for it . I'm donating all my books to head start since I don't have a use for them anymore. Clothes and anything else not needed are going to whoever wants them. Thank you for asking
