It is improving

We're now getting rain with the snow, so have lost more than we've gained.  The Boss is pleased as he hasn't spent 3/4 of the time reclearing all his tracks as he tries to feed out, which means he may be in before dark tonight, which will be good.  Had to cut a fence for the cows we brought down the other day as he couldn't get up to them, so they are now in with the Rising 3 year old Heifers, plus a few calves have made their way there as well from where they were camped, so WHEN the cattle yards thaw we will have a drafting job, but the main thing is they are getting hay.

Have just heard our main road is open, and the mailman has made it through.  Four days worth of papers sitting tantalisingly in my mailbox - only one problem though.  The Boss has been too busy to clear the drive since Tuesday, so if I want it I have to walk.  One kilometre in over kneehigh snow - hmmmmmm, we'll see!  How much do I really want it??  Did suggest to the Boss since he'd be in earlier he may enjoy the stroll - but must say he wasn't excited about the prospect either!
