Diane got stuck in her drive as she was leaving for Meisters today while Eva Jean got stuck in TEMCO's lot as she was trying to get the mail. I say trying because it didn't happen. Ellen didn't make it in and the TEMCO lot wasn't plowed. Eva Jean and Diane worked on the individual Bibles borrowing a roll of stamps from Meisters. She was only able to get out 97 Bibles before she ran out of wrapped ones. She drove them to the post office to find out postage for the Bibles went up 16 cents meaning she had to buy the stamps needed, sit on the loading dock unpacking and placing 3 more stamps on each one before packing them back in the box and up on the dock. They didn't even get LUNCH.
The paddocks were checked over, both Evan and the mare paddock will need a bale soon but not today. Evan probably has a day or 2 left which should work out about right for the mare paddock. Mark did more snow plowing today after he got home from work.
Lily was checked, her udder is filling up. It was bigger than yesterday but we still have some time. She isn't due until March 14th but usually delivers early. She will be stalled at night as soon as Emily comes back from her house sitting job unless I feel she needs to be brought in sooner. This will be her 9th foal. The first 8 were by Raven this next one is by Raven's son Valiant. The picture below is of Lily and her 2nd colt by Raven. She is our best producer. Check out the neck on that boy!
Check out his movement in the video below.
It's kind of neat to go back and look at some of the old videos of our past foals.
