Winter Chores

Winter is coming, winter is coming! Back when we lived in California winter used to mean put on a sweater once in a while, and get excited about frost on the lawn, but we really didn't need to do anything to prepare for winter. Living on the coast meant flip flops year round pretty much.

When we moved to Idaho winter took on a whole new meaning... having our own land winter means get the wood ready, get the heat lamps out to the chickens, blow out the sprinklers (which I had never heard of before me moved here), move the clothes line into the garage & trying to figure out how to keep the cow's water from freezing along with a ton of other winter "chores"...It is a lot of work, but we love it! :)
