...I hear ya when it comes to working on Christmas! <br />We also have a dairy farm, and it's so hard for others to understand that we are in the barn, early Christmas morning and usually get in around noon, back out to the barn around 6 p.m. for evening chores.<br />We turn up some Christmas tunes to cheer up our chores! <br />No days off for the farmer, ever. <br />Don't think I'd ever trade what we do for anything else, though.<br />Merry Christmas!Renaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14666082174620709186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9109681358420328680.post-3852741038384206402009-12-26T19:31:26.262-06:002009-12-26T19:31:26.262-06:00Will,
We started Christmas day listening to your C...Will,<br />We started Christmas day listening to your Christmas song then off to 9 hours with of chores. The blizzard that hit Kansas left 6-8 ft snow drifts we had to break through to feed our cows and calves and make sure they had water since the ponds were frozen. <br /><br />Some holiday, today chores took 6 hours. Tomorrow it will be about the same as there's no warm-up in sight. <br /><br />So many people don't realize the animals come first when you're in the farming/ranching/dairy business. <br /><br />Merry Christmas and Happy Moo Year from our place to yours.DLDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13658144115303080897noreply@blogger.com
