One Step Closer…

The Almosta Blog Posted on October 23, 2013 by MyriamSeptember 13, 2018

Yup, one step closer to starting my business! :) I still have a few details to take care of, but things are looking good so far. No, I’m not going to tell you what it’ll be about. Some of you know the orientation I was taking at one point in time. It’s close to that, but a little different. In any case, if you post a comment, please don’t say a word about it and let others be surprised ;)

Other than that, we’ve had snowfalls twice so far. It’s pretty much all melted now, but one can’t deny anymore that winter is coming.

Windy day

The Almosta Blog Posted on May 14, 2013 by MyriamSeptember 13, 2018

The wind has been blowing non-stop since this morning. When I say blowing, I mean blowing! Weather service says the winds are around 30 mph, with gusts up to 50 mph. I have no problem believing it. Proof: this picture taken with my phone. Not a good quality pic but look at all that dust!

Strange clouds

The Almosta Blog Posted on July 13, 2010 by MyriamApril 10, 2014 1

On June 24, we noticed a strange looking cloud. It had the general appearance of a cumulus but with a veil around it. If anyone has an idea of what it is, please leave a comment to let us know.

New tractor and… snow

The Almosta Blog Posted on October 11, 2009 by MyriamSeptember 16, 2018

We finally received our brand new tractor!  The old one, a Massey Ferguson model 31, is a sturdy machine but it kept needing repairs. After Gary spent two weeks getting the loader on it, he decided that the old tractor had served it’s time and that a new one was coming to our place. The old one was also hard for me to get to a stop. I’d have to stand up on the clutch and brake pedals. The new one, a Massey Ferguson model 1660, is a sweet machine. Runs smoothly and is easy to control. I’m not afraid of driving it. We also got a snow blower for it so we won’t get snowed in like last year!

Here I am test driving it around.

In other news, how about some snow in early October?

Towards the end of September, temperatures dropped below normal and have been there since. Then two days ago, on the 10, we got snow (see picture above). But somebody, somewhere, decided that it wasn’t enough I guess. So yesterday we got some more…

And then some more…

Nobody was really prepared for this, us included. Our tent is still out there.

It snowed on and off yesterday and during the night. Forecast? More snow tonight. Where did fall go?…

Spring Creek

The Almosta Blog Posted on April 13, 2009 by MyriamSeptember 16, 2018

Went outside early to take some pictures of our creek. There used to be a creek running through the pasture but it ran dry many years ago. However, with the spring thaw and the huge amounts of snow we received, the creek has come back to life.

I also got lucky and took this picture of the horses in the fog.
