Do we take these storms seriously... Top photo is of the snowfall forecast... throw in 40-60 mph winds.. pretty serious if you are in the livestock business. The bottom photos are of my folks by their house after the April 6, 1997 blizzard.

I hear so much about how folks are tired of the weather... News for you.. "This is life in the north country". Our family and our neighbors in ranch country have seen many of these situations for last century plus years... Grit... Determination and Strength from the Almighty and faith. Is it a challenge? "No doubt." But is what we do ... and it is who we are.

Counting blessings along the rugged path of life. We know that this is life. We will be diligent about care of what has been entrusted to us. Snow brings much needed moisture. Yes the 97 storm was tough... but grass and crops were good. It is what it is and we choose to weather the storm... or the storms. It is what we do... and it is who we are.

Praying and Trusting God... It is what we do... and it is who we are.

Time to head again...
