January 2007 - Brrrr, it was a
cold one with a major ice storm. We met the family for
Christmas in Missouri right after the New Year. New puppies -
Hunter x Queen. Queen is a full sister to Allen Sanders Bear
dog and a half sister to his Max. Glenn Christensen,
Collinsville, OK brings up a couple of dogs to work. Tommy
Huddleston, DeQueen, AR came by with Ann. Don Beougher,
Elk Falls, KS brought Jill for training. Cold, cold, cold.

Brrrrrrrr.....Ben keeps the home fire
burning. |

New Years started
off with a fun family Christmas with everyone
converging in Dadeville, Missouri. The
kids framed a couple of dad's reining horse
competition wins for him. |

the cell phone asking the guys where the heck
they are. The whole section looked like
that. They ran some, but didn't get any
that day. |

Allen Sanders stopped
by. The ground was soft. Ben got him
out with the trusty tractor. |

Tommy Huddleston,
DeQueen, Arkansas, brought Ann for training.

Beougher, Elk Falls, Kansas brought Jill
for training. Jill peels them off
the fence for Don.
Below - The
great Oklahoma ice storm. We were on
the north edge of it. As you can see
the critters were iced over too. It
hit on a Friday. Over 104,000 lost
power. The power companies are doing
an amazing job. A second storm came
through a week later, but we got very
little out of that one even though it was
suppose to dump 6 - 9 inches here.

Icy horses.
They fared pretty good. Mack colicked on
about the third day of the icy weather, but
came around right away after the Banimine. |
|
|
We heard some
folks will be without power for maybe 6 weeks.
We were blessed as we only lost water for a
couple days. Of course that had us
scrabbling to fill anything that would hold
water (and fit in the house) so we could water
livestock. Icy cattle, frozen hoses, brrrrrrrrrrrrr.. |

Lena brings them
up. Keep puts them in the corrals.
Ben scoops and hauls the feed. |

Sheep and goats
chow down. Below - Scooter "purveys her

House dogs,
Perch and Scooter are cozy by the fireplace.
Of course, they're ready to go outside at the
drop of a hat.
Stay safe and
warm during this winter weather. |
