Cult of Clouds.


Farmers with blogs can't not post about the weather.
I came home a month ago. It snowed on my drive home. We had a white thanksgiving. I haven't seen the ground since. We haven't gone above freezing since. Which is quite weird for Ohio. We get snow, but it always turns into ugly brown freezy bits within the week. Really though, I'm not complaining, as it's covering up the ugly.
It has also allowed me to see where things walk and drive. Everyone who has driven off the road in the last month has left a premanent testament to their lack of motor skills. Everyone who can't walk a straight line has been identified and tagged. Where the farm cats go when they aren't begging food on the front porch is no longer a mystery (it's the barn, no one was really mysitified.) I see we have a much larger pack of coyotes harassing the cows than I had thought.
The picture above is cow tracks. Cows can't do the straight line thing. Cities like Boston and Columbus have streets built on old cow paths. It explains a lot.
