It was 19 F this afternoon. My niece and I took a cpl class and had to spend about 2 hours outside shooting. Neither one of us anticipated the 45 mph wind gusts, but we managed to get through it. Hardest part was trying to fill a 9mm magazine multiple times with frozen fingers (yeah, her favorite uncle filled hers for her too!). We both easily got our certificates. She's only 5'1", 100 lbs, and she handily out-shot her uncle! :thumbup:

That sucks big time, never thought of that when coming to farming.  Can you scrape it with a dozer or bucket on a tractor?

I’m gonna try with the skid steer once it firms up more, was still slop late today. If not wit the skid steer then I’ll wait a bit longer till it really freezes up and use the box scraper on a tractor. Just will do the lane though, they are on 32 acres of winter pasture now and ain’t about to cover all that with a 7’ box scraper or skid steer. If it freezes good and hard then we get enough snow that’ll pack down enough to help em out. Even harder on horse’s since they have solid hoofs instead of a split hoof like a cow.
