Ground Blizzard

We are in the  middle of a ground blizzard. I just hope that by the time the sun sets, that the blizzard will be over with. It also looks like all the roads around the Sanctuary are currently "No Travel Advised". I decided to work from home (for the paying job) and I'm sure glad I did. There have been times where I haven't even been able to see the barn. And I think the barn is only about 300 feet away from the house (although I'm a poor judge of distance (but it takes 2 100foot hoses and 20 shorter hoses to get to the barn so I'm guessing 300feet).

I'm glad I had to the good sense to blanket some of the others I hadn't blanketed earlier in the week. After the wind dies down we are supposed to get colder temps. It's been an odd morning of terrible wind and then calm and then major wind and then calm. Now it's major wind and I dont' expect that will let up until evening. To avoid hay in my face, I think everyone will be going in for the night.

Ahh the joys of winter. Even if the weatherman says the blizzard warning is a county a way, plan for a blizzard anyway!
