Yes, you really should try it some time with a REAL prairie winter like Laura Ingalls wrote about! The cold is to your bones, and goes on for days or months It's a whole 'nother world trying to take care of animals, etc. I hope I never live any further north than I am - because I can hardly handle it here! I don't know how people in the northern Dakotas, Minnesota and Canada do it!

Sending your family warm wishes! Remember, wool is a gift from God! (You should see me bundled up to go out to care for my own animals... we're talking 6 layers here! At least no-one has snapped my photo -laugh) I long for the days of no "hat hair".

I'm greatly enjoying your journal. I used to have a sheep farm, but now have a tiny "urban homestead" on 1/8 acre in central Albuquerque. I'll look forward to following your journal in the future. I keep my website to promote the idea that home food production is a possibility on any scale, but I don't do anything as impressive as brewing my own fuel! Keep up the good work. Heather

Ok, at first I was laughing at your winterwear, but then I read the next post where it said it was 26 degrees and stopped laughing. That's what it is here in SE MI, at least you don't have the 9 inches of snow to go with it! Glad to hear your plants are ok.
