January 28, 2026 It’s 18 degrees at 4 a.m., looking at 42 for a high. The wind will be right at 10 mph out of the WNW. Sometimes we have to be specific about what we ask for. Today I get to climb aboard a friends ‘ol steed and move cattle! Last Monday, I made…

January 27, 2026 At 3:30 this morning the temperature is 17 degrees above. Right now, there is no wind and it seems as if Mother Nature is at peace, yet my spirit is in turmoil. Yesterday I was blessed to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with two hundred plus folks at a well-respected man’s…

January 26, 2026 It was well below zero when we went to bed last night, and now it is 4 above at 5 a.m. This is to be one of those days that the temperature and the wind speed match, both pushing 40. For the last two days I have shared with you about a…

January 25, 2026 At 5 a.m. the thermometer reads a solid 0 degrees. The forecast calls for a wee bit of warm-up during the day, and serious cold tonight. Yet as I look at the forecast for next week, it should warm up nicely. To continue with yesterday’s writing: Remember the outside temp was 35-40…

January 24, 2026 Well, the ‘ol thermometer reads -15 degrees outside. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out it’s plum cold outside with the 5-10 mph breeze out of the west! Miss Deb and I are to meet with a family right at 30 miles to the north-west of us at 1:30 today, hopefully…

January 23, 2026 Good morning! I’m sorry about not writing yesterday. Our day was consumed with being too busy baking and making yesterday. This morning, the ground is completely white outside, with more of that fun stuff coming before today is over and then 8 degrees below zero for a low tonight. Oh ya, let’s…

1/21/2026 Cold and windy with a skift of snow. Looks and feels like winter. I turn the furnace down each evening before calling it a day, so it was a bit chilly in this ‘ol shack at 3:30 this morning when the Lord nudged me in the ribs. As such, I pulled the covers up…

January 20, 2026 When I got up at 4 a.m. the outside temperature was 20 degrees, after an hour of study, I’m now writing this note at 5 a.m. with a temp of 15 degrees. It always gets colder before daylight! This morning’s study started in Ephesians 2:1-3, stop and give it a good read.…

January 19, 2026 Good morning all. A cool 15 degrees here at 4 a.m., headed for a high of 38 with wind gusts to match the high. This morning, I visited with the Lord for an hour or so and then came to this computer, continuing to pray that the Holy Spirit would let me…

January 18, 2026 Yep, more wind. Years ago, the old timers told me that this is how the Dirty Thirties started. I’m sure enough praying this wind to stop, and for moisture to start soon. Take a gander at the photo at the bottom of this post and tell me how difficult your life is.…
