Weather said 40 mph gusting this afternoon and we had another 3-4 inches of fluffy stuff ontop of more than a foot and a half of barely settled snow last night. Wind is not a good combination. While I kept an eye on the storm in town at work...I finally decided to grab the boy from school early and get for home. I didn't want to be stranded in town. I have one more cow about to calf and I am a little anxious. Next time ..I just won't go to work! Hopefully the electric poles don't come down in the future..they make good ditch markers. Seems it was the only way sometimes I could gauge if I was on the road or not....My son and I were both a wreck by the time we got home. It will take me all day tomorrow just to dig out again, so another snow day..YEEHAAWW!
How very scary!!!I have never seen anything like that and believe me,I am not complaining about it one bit either! Glad you all made it home safe!
ReplyDeleteHoly smokes! And you drove in that weather? No wonder your son and you were nervous wrecks by the time you both got home. WOW!!! Glad you both made it home safe. Now if the weather is like that again, you are staying home, right?
ReplyDeleteoh man, that blowing snow is the WORST. Visability goes to ZERO, NADA, ZILCH in about .0002 seconds. Glad you made it home, stay safe and warm! I hope the calving goes well... what is the baby to be? A cross? Dairy? Rudy will have a buddy to play with soon...
