“There are two spiritual dangers in not owning a farm. One is the danger of supposing that breakfast comes from the grocery, and the other that heat comes from the furnace.”
― Aldo Leopold, A Sand County Almanac
Getting ready to go feed the animals in freezing temperatures.
Your photograph and the title of your post were perfect partners! Loved the accompanying quote. Despite the fact that I live in “sunny” California there are plenty of winter days up here in NorCal- especially in El Nino years like this one- that the weather slows me from tending the sheep and chickens. But they’re always so happy to see me, how could I not? thanks for link to the outdoor reflections and essays – I see a Christmas gift in the making
Hi Leane. My oldest just got back from a week and a half in Florida and she was not happy to met with our cold temperatures, lol!
