On a cold winters day

 
These horses , standing motionless under an oak tree across the Allan glen, remind me daily of my early life on the farm in Wales and having to go out and feed the animals even in the coldest of weather.
 
Farming is a hard life and I have no regrets about leaving it 
behind.

PS. We are still snowed in combined with black ice from the patches we had cleared. Hopefully by Monday it will all have gone.
