25 below this morning
and, as is usual on a cold morning like this
something breaks just because it is so darn cold
silo unloader, ugh
in a way it wouldnt be so bad, but having so much clothing on makes it diffucult just to get up there and get all the tools up there and in.
Picks, bar, hammer, screw driver, wrenches
then the dim light and the cold
lying in the frozen silage hoping no one down below gets antsy and hits the switch
or for some reason that cable decides to give out
unlikely for sure, but it crosses ones mind up there in that cold tomb
it took Jim and i about an hour to fix it
we were plenty cold; a little relieved
i think its about the best one can hope for on a morning like this
