No cattle right now. Thank God. The dogs are in and out all day long. I'm mainly concerned about damage to the well tank. I don't know how much freezing it can handle. But only time will tell. I've done all I can do. There is a little moisture at the faucets in the house, So some water is getting through.

Lana: if possible keep a stream going in at least one faucet or Saturday you may have a flood. The deep well at the Nebraska place has even tried to freeze. The sister in law didn't remember to let a line run, we will see if the pump froze,Joys of Private water service. So far here in Mo. Not all that far from you, we are holding fine but then Don and I are not required to do much except feed the birds and other creatures. Even the Dr. was put off until next week. And we do live on a surfaced road. May be remote but is a county line. I think we are now twelve in a five mile stretch. Bud.
