More Bubba Photos January 2009

Turn it on, I'm ready for my Saturday night bath.

Who put the food in my water?

Catching up on the latest animal news.

Snow January 19-2009

This was a pretty snow and today it has started to melt. The roads are clean and you can go most anywhere you want to go.

This is one of the two fish ponds that is not frozen entirely.

This pond is frozen over even in the dark spot in the center, when I checked them this morning, the pumps had stopped running, hope they are not burned out.

These are shots of one of the water tanks in Warrenton, this one is on North Main Street and apparently overflowed during the night. It is quite a sight. I am posting this so people that are staying inside to keep warm can see it.

Fish Ponds in January 2009

The temperature has been in the teens this a.m. and has not appeared to get above freezing all day. The fish are staying on the bottom and are not feeding at this time of year. As long as the water keeps running and putting oxygen in the water they will survive. When the weather warms up they will come to the top and be waiting for me to feed them. If it gets to cold for long periods of time I will put heaters in the pools and they will beging to eat again.

This is a real old popular tree that is on our farm, it has withstood wind storms, ice, lightning strikes. It is now hollowed out and still alive and standing. DW and I were taking our daily walk and it was real cold, but I talked her into standing in front of the tree to give you an idea how big it is, I think it is at least 8 to 10 feet in diameter.

This is what "Bubba" does for fun and exercise almost every morning.

When you get tired of playing, you just fall over on the bed and go to sleep, do not disturb or you will get a ugly look like above.

Bubba has not been feeling well lately, he had to go to the vet. He is much better now and takes his meds twice a day for one more week. He is playing with Baby Sister and feels much better. He likes to lay in the window and soak up the sunshine.
