mike69mackman Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 With it being so cold, milk production is down which slows down the production of finished product(cream, buttermilk, skim condensed) which are the three products I haul. Sitting at home two days in a row is making me a bit stir crazy although it's been nice to get caught up on a few things and spend time with momma since she works from home. Still antsy because I wNt to be out there making money. Guess I should enjoy the extra down time because when the weather breaks I'll be making all kinds of hay.

farmer52 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Mike,I feel your pain. Too cold to do anything outside and not motived to do much inside.If it was warmer (closer to 30 degrees) I would suggest a road trip to look at some F models (ya know where I mean).

mike69mackman Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 Well I guess my week might get salvaged somewhat. Load of buttermilk from laurel md to Decatur Alabama. Still not the greatest finish but better than what I have up to this point.
