~ this calf stands out among the herd ~

It looks "fine" out there, just fine! But I haven't been out yet. Too busy keeping the fire stoked — I hear it's about 40 below today. The buses didn't run, again, though the grader was out early enough for the grid road to be passable when Scott went to town. I kept my little ducks home for one more day and only one of them has complained about that.

Aside from a two-hour power outage this morning due to a power-pole fire somewhere in the area, the day has been pleasantly uneventful.
