A Christmas song by Steve Earle with Maria McKee .
*NOTE* Maria McKee's stepbrother, Bryan McLean, was a founding member of LOVE along with Arthur Lee.
*NOTE* I recorded this song on a Christmas CD for an Ocala radio station.
Steve and Maria's is much better.

Wishing all a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday!

Morning Rook and Gary.

Anti its ok, I'm here, there, and gone again. Some times I don't even know where I am...and I'm there!

I hear you MsBB, I’m very easily distracted these days… squirrel!!

It stayed in the -double digits all day, along with a slight breeze so it was chilly- no, actually it was damn right uncomfortable.
Added a small heater and turning on the water warmer in the barn, added another heat light in the brooder area for the young ones.
It's hard to bet motivated when it dips down quickly and there's still a lot of moisture about.

Turned on the main floor hydronic base boards as the split-air was working hard to keep up.

I took the puppy for a couple of walks yesterday Jim, which is an event in itself.
I chase her around for 10mins to put her harness and doggie coat on her. I do all this so I can walk a mile around the block in a -16c windchill yesterday.
Thankfully unlike in Gary’s area, we live on the shore of Lake Ontario across from Rochester, NY and we get very little ‘lake affect’ snow. All we have here so far is a dusting.

Squirrel? More like the butterfly effect.

Well I don't have to put a coat on Max, already has his own. Nothing worse when he wants to stay out and play, no matter what the temps are. It seems he loves the cold and snow, gets right down playful.

We had a town run today-but now with a upset system it's stay at home and do dog runs instead.
