Once Upon a Stormy Monday

Yesterday, it rained.

And rained.

And rained.

This newborn arrived during the downpour. She’s healthy and her momma kept her warm all day and night. I hear she’s doing good today so she got her earring to match her mom’s.

The roads were muddy and a heavy fog hung over the snow capped mountains.

The corrals were slushy so we decided not to move any cattle as previously planned.

The perk of the day came when  Crop Ear made a visit. We haven’t seen her in a while and I was worried she fell prey to a coyote or lion. I was glad to see her munching on some green grass in the meadows by the house.

Today the wind is howling and we’ll be dried out in time for snow to fall tonight.
