How sad about the newborn calf that didn’t make it. I know nature has its reasons, but it’s still sad.

We are having a bit more snowfall today. And leaf fall! When the temps get above freezing we will have our outdoor work cut out for us, again, but this time with leaf removal!

For me, it’s the walnut and hickory nut (and husks) removal too!

We sharply dropped temperatures outside yesterday, to 28 deg. F early this morning - enough to kill almost all the veggie plants & flowers I couldn’t bring in. (Ran out of time and space.) Tonight will be colder here: down to 22 deg., so that will finish off any that have a hint of life left.

It’s been windy too: Brrrr!! These temperatures (day and night) are about 20 deg. F below normal for us, the 2nd week in November. I’ll have to turn on the heat in the 2 chicken houses tonight.
