Every Monday, Maria takes a beautiful video of the start of the week as she greets and feeds the animals. I thought I’d share this video – they are all special – which shows how our animals (and people) handle the cold. It’s below freezing today, but not as severe as other parts of the country. This isn’t all that different from any January in Upstate New York. Come along. I’m planning on posting her Monday videos after she does.

Maria’s Monday Morning Video: Arctic Cold
by Jon Katz
Watching the morning barn chores and seeing .the eagerness of the sheep and donkeys
made me so happy. Although there is a shed, the horses stay out, and look to be sleeping as the snow piles
up on them. More insulation against the cold, a de-icer in their water tank, plenty of hay: all’s right
in their world.
Thank you for my smile this morning. I love this.
Thank you for sharing.
This is a reminder of the cold job feeding the animals before I went to school. Great memories.
