We made it…. The long month of January is nearly over. I think we are hoping that the extremely cold weather is over as well. Now, we need to work on getting rid of the wind and winter will be perfect. It is great to see the sun and it […]
Kim Jo Bliss – Moo’s From The Herd
I think we will all agree that it is COLD! When I was heading to bed last night, I was nervous thinking about what the morning would bring. I was up in the night and though I shouldn’t have, I peaked at the outside temperature. It was -40 and it […]
Well, it was -30 when I left the house for chores this morning and my dog decided she would take the morning off. There was no wind, and the sun is out so it felt decent. Happiness is when you see the water still in a liquid state at all […]
Happy New Year Everyone! I hope that everyone has had a wonderful holiday and enjoyed a little downtime or uptime if that’s what you needed. I started last week getting back in the office for a few hours to get back on track. It is great to take time off […]
As I write this column for the Holiday Paper – I am still not fully decorated, and I am certainly not finished shopping. It may very well be that I will be shopping after Christmas. It is not for the great deals; it is for the lack of time and […]
I have been watching many of my friends deal with heavy snow thinking; “wow can’t believe we have missed that!” Our turn has arrived. I was planning to be at the Station this week, but I haven’t made it there today. I have shoveled off the step twice now and […]
My goal of having my outdoor light display up by December 1st fell short again. I only started my light task on December 1st. I have been very frustrated with my lights so far and have quit early the last two nights. I have pretty much replaced all my lights […]
Yikes! November 25 and only one month left to prepare for the big day. I had good intentions of starting on my outdoor display of lights, but I ended up doing more of the job on my farm list. I planned to spend my evenings in the office working on […]
Well, I am busy summarizing data and trying to create a report at the Station. It is slightly depressing since there are numerous things that worked against all things here this year. First off, a very late spring meant late planting dates, roughly as much as a month later for […]
Aaron Bujold & his girlfriend Janelle, along with Linda and Evan Debney attended the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto to receive their Ag Excellence Awards. More great news for both the Rainy River and Kenora Districts. (Though Linda was born and raised here so I still consider her from Rainy […]
Fortunately, I was able to get away for the weekend with some great people and cheer loudly for Aaron (Bujold Farms) at Manitoba Ag. Ex. This is a large cattle show with many breeds represented and the Supreme Champions from this show get a bye in the Supreme Champion Class […]
I am pretty sure we all agree that this weather has been incredible, and no one is rushing it away. (Well maybe the snowmobilers.) Even if it gets cooler my hope is we can stay dry. We can put more clothes on but once it is too wet there is […]
