Almost all the schools in this area announced (last night) that they would be closed today due to heavy snow and wind. It was the right thing to do.
Rebel and Buddy were game to go out for their morning hay.
Before getting out there, I had shoveled a path from the house to the barn....
and by the time I finished cleaning the stalls it got very squally.
Gary got the snow blower going and I was shoveling until 10:45. (That was a long morning).
Little Wonder did not want to go with me for chores and tried a potty break without wearing his black coat. He lasted for a couple of minutes.
The temperature started dropping and after another squall I decided to put the boys back in the barn around noon.
This time LW was smart enough to wear his coat.
At 5 the boys were turned out while Gary did the water (topped off with warm) and I reset the stalls.
Fortunately dinner was started before going out. Port chops, squash and a salad.
Right now the temperature is 12 degrees and it feels like -2. Can't wait to take a hot shower.
Night all.

I always enjoy your blog, LM, Rebel, and Buddy and all y'all do to keep them fed and warm. Your dinner always looks yummy, too!
What fun for the local kids to have a snow day!!
Our high today was 37*F with the low tonight 20*F and colder nights are coming in the next few nights.
Hugs!
Closing the schools was the right thing with buses on the roads and announcing it last night helped parents find safe child care. Your meals always look so good. I sure don’t feel like going out to restaurants in this cold blustery weather so I get inventive for new recipes to try this time of year. Kathy
I'm glad the schools were closed so children were safer than being on terrible roads.
We've been getting weird weather here too. Light rain--snow flurries--some wind some more snow. Mother Nature can't make up her mind but she is windy!
Yes, you did get a fair amount of snow! Mpls/St.Paul school districts are making remote learning available for those who don't feel safe of are traumatized by what is happening here.
Although snow is a lot of work....it looks so beautiful.
