This page is to give you a little outtake about our daily lives, our family, our cattle and  news in the Braunvieh & cattle business. It gives us a chance to look back at the year, let our friends and family know what we are up to, occasionally blow off some steam and we hope you find it informative and entertaining. Pull up a chair, a cup of coffee and visit with us anytime.

I'll be darned as I was just feeling good I got food poisoning Monday! Trust me it gave a whole new meaning to the "backhouse trots"! Feeling much better today and hopefully can eat some good stuff and watch the Super Bowl. It' going to be a doosey and everyone is dressed in Colts gear!
                           
We had a snow storm yesterday with a lot of snow and wind. Much of the state is shut down with big drifts on the roads and I had to dig out with the tractor so we could get around. It's sunny today but still blowing and it's going to be a while for things to get normal and they are calling for more snow. I've had hydraulic problems with the loader on the tractor and it's not getting better. I think we have ice somewhere in the system and have tried to work on it as I can but can't get it into a warm area and my time is limited as I get so cold. Changed the filters and went through the spooler and lines and at least have everything working but the curl. It will have to do for now.

It's snowing again and that just adds to the mourning we are going through after Sunday's game. It gave a true meaning to "Blue Monday". I guess if we had to loose I would just as soon loose to Brees as he is a Purdue boy. In case you haven't figured it out we are big  fans of both.
The cattle are doing good even with this weather but we both await green grass and warmer temps. We got a call from some folks in Michigan and they want to stop by next weekend to look at cattle - hope they can get here! Guess if they like them now they will really like them come spring!

2/12
We finally got some sun but it is still cold. The cattle have been venturing out to soak up some of the sun so Nina has been taking a few pictures. Welcome to our winter wonderland.

                                

           At least we don't have 4-5 ft drifts to deal with and barns for the cattle to get out of the wind. Our cattle are spoiled rotten!
