Yes, We Had a Blizzard.

On February 2, 2011 in General by spope

We had our blizzard as predicted.  It snowed probably a foot, but the wind was what caused the turmoil.  We had about 5 employees make it into work early this morning – more arrived as the day progressed.  Ryan worked the shop truck with the snowplow, Art ran the Bobcat, Chris and Troy took turns running the snowblower (we have a tractor mounted snowblower to power through big drifts) and Mike ran a large tractor with a blade.  The guys opened up the roads to the farm – they are still at it, and I’m sure they will be at it tomorrow too.

The birds are fine – pheasants are tough critters.  Brian Klein and a few of his pen crew have been out shoveling out feeders, but Brian told me “it wasn’t that bad” and that he isn’t concerned because very few of the feeders got drifted in.  We are so lucky the storm was dry snow and not ice, sleet or freezing rain!  And I appreciate that I have such good employees who readily dug in and worked to get the farm opened up.
