What's the temperature where you are???

It was 36° when I got up this morning. Hose was stiff. Had to take warm water out to the pens to fill the waterers.

Since I'm not working today, I won't be assuming my boss's position! BTW, I am the BOSS!

I told the horses they should get my breakfast and clean stalls, while I played with the baby chicks. And sat around the hay feeder munching all day…..

That went over like a cement brick off a boat!

27F and clear with a high of 37 expected - no wind = a nice day

55°and cloudy after a lovely morning rain. No sign of runoff even though it rained hard off and on.

It's 1:30 P.M. and 62° right now... wow!! It's beautiful, cool and overcast. So rare here. I love it. If it weren't for the low humidity (18%) it would feel like home (at home today it's 63° but with 65% humidity).

It should start being like this in October. This year we had to wait until the end of December to have fall weather. It was still 100+ in October.

Just one single fall day in nine months. I'll take it!

Dual tragedies strike Sydney to Hobart as line honours favourite pulls out amid wild weather​

Two Sydney to Hobart sailors have died at sea amid wild weather conditions that left line honours favourite Master Lock Comanche to withdraw among mass retirements.

The race will continue towards Hobart’s Constitution Dock, with the first boats expected to arrive later on Friday or early Saturday morning.

The Cruising Yacht Club of Australia, which administers the yacht race, has said that one sailor each on entrants Flying Fish Arctos and Bowline were killed after being struck by the boom, a large horizontal pole at the bottom of the sail.

Both boats have since retired from the race, two of the 13 that had pulled out between the starting gun on Boxing Day and 6am on December 27.

The deaths are the first in the 628nm race since the tragic 1998 Hobart, which claimed the lives of six sailors in storms and triggered mass reforms to the race’s safety protocols.

Race organisers are expected to address the media later on Friday morning.
