Nothing wrong with resting after a hard days work:')
Oh man, there's tons of stuff on the internet about tornadoes. Pictures, videos and graphic descriptions from storm chasers. The worst one I've seen was the one in Jarrell, Texas. An F5, it leveled the town to the point that you didn't even know there was a town there. It even pulled the pavement up off the roads.
It's makin' me sick, too.
It's not bad here this morning. We are headed out to the stables.
LOL:)
Pretty much the way it's here. Too cold.

It's very cold and windy here and probably headed your way.
Ok, I've been studying the feed through fly control product called Equitrol and I don't think I'll be using that one. In vet studies at UCDavis it shows there is a significant behavior change in horses taking Equitrol. In "The Horse" magazine, someone sued Farnam over Equitrol and they won a multimillion dollar lawsuit.
Well, I be hesitant to use any kind of "feed-thru" posions (unless maybe to get a mulit=million dollar suit:). From what my vet told me, those kind of things are hard on their livers.

LOL
I have a permanently lame horse here, perhaps I should sacrifice him for a lawsuit.
Off the Subject but does anyone know how much (roughly) a 30x36 Morton barn would cost with two stalls. I just need a rough idea is it $20,000-$30,000-$10000? I obviously have no idea
I would think in the ten thousand range, give or take. I have a 5 stall metal barn with a tack room and outdoor wash rack, all on a cement slab (except for stalls) and I'm thinking we paid about $30,000 for it. If I can get ahold of my husband I'll find out exactly how much it was and let you know.
thanks I appreciate that....how big in dimensions is your barn?
Morton buildings are ridiculisly over priced. Most lumber yards can put up a building just as nice for alot less. Shop around.

Kentucky is good and so is Tennessee.
Temps here just dropped 11 degrees in a couple of hours with winds gusting to 30 mph. From 54 and partly cloudy to 43 and overcast. Did not take me long to feed the livestock this morning. Also made sure all the water tanks were topped off.
If FrogInABlender is riding this morning, both her and her horse will be aired out by the time they get back home..... : )

The dogs, Rebel the Blue Heeler and Lugar the Lab. Rebel had to wear his coat..lol
We got about 5 inches of snow, and it has stopped now. Waiting on the next hit they say we are going to get.
I honestly don't know. I'll ask my husband. I also have awnings on all 4 sides and I sure like them. We added them as an afterthought and I'm glad we did. My kids play under there while I'm working, I store equipment under there and also hay.
Ok, this is what I found out. Not including the awnings it's approximately 36 by 40. My barn aisle is wide enough for me to pull a truck and trailer through, something I do if it looks like it's gonna hail, so my stuff doesn't get tore up. My husband couldn't remember exactly what we paid for it because we added on alot of extras along the way but he thought it wasn't any more than 30 grand and probably a little less than that. He also said those Morton barns are way overpriced. I had a barn builder here in my town build mine.
