Those of you who have dairy cattle and other livestock my hat's off to all of you. I grew up on a small farm in Illinois. But this cold weather the last few days is unbareable. I'm only 49 and like the out doors but I wouldn't want to have to work in it like you folks do. My one brother in law and his 3 brothers with a lot of other hired hands milk over 500 cattle twice every day.
