By now, I imagine things are beginning to wind down a bit for everyone. Christmas has come and gone and now we’re getting ready to head into the New Year. Gifts have been opened, exchanges have been made and deal-seeking crowds have dispersed.
As I sit and write this column today (at midweek,) I’m looking out my window at some dark clouds and hoping they will bring in buckets full of rain later today. This has been one of the driest winters that I can remember. Many people, including us, have already started shipping their cattle.
