Snow, and Cows...............

 We have had a few days like this blowing snow and cold.
The view out my kitchen window, on east side of house.
 View to the north of the house.
 The other day I went to Mitchell and on the way home I saw this eagle along the  side of the road so I stopped to take some pictures. Dang another car went by and scared him up. I only got one good pic, Sue it was acouple of miles south of your corner.
 This morning we moved some cows to another corn field. I always take my camera to take pictures of the cows and to have something to do while I wait. Lots of brown leaves hanging on this tree. They must be super glued on cus we have had some strong winds lately.

 Here they come finally!
 No problems on the highway crossing. someone even stopped to see if I needed help as I had my flashers on. I told him no that we were moving cows but thanks for asking hardly anyone does!  The neighbors usually know that's why I would be on the road with my flashers on so they don't always stop.



 Going slow they have about a 2 mile walk to get to the next cornfield.


 All made it across the highway!!
 I'm at the driveway and zoom in a little over a half mile to see if they are turning north like they are suppose to they are so in the house I go:)
What's this?????JMF

2 down and Lord knows how many to go............................



 My first 2 finished UFOs in 2014. I want this to be the year of the finished!! The baby quilt is such stiff fabric I am going to wash it  to soften it up abit. It will be a charity quilt.
 Now that this one is done I'm not so mad at it!!! Some of the black sashing got alittle out of place during the quilting. I was just quilting along and then noticed that some weren't so straight anymore. By then I was to far along to rip out so it is what it is.


I have one other panel quilted it just needs the binding.
Off to wrestling to watch Regan at his first meet, and John who has been wrestling for 5 years that would be half his life!!!..............JMF

Robin confused

 Greg just sat the pail of corn out so now the squirrel just sits in it all day and eats!
 So are these robins confused or nuts???? Haven't figured it out yet.
 They look alittle frosty here.
 Lots of people have been seeing big flocks of robins. What's up with that????

 Got another one quilted! I think I will bind the 2 I have quilted before I quilt the next 2.
 I have  a couple of other things I want to start, but I have to quilt a few more things before I let myself start another project.
Let me know what you think...Robin confused or early spring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!JMF
