That's one way to get out of milking again. Rather expensive but hey we all screw up. There's not enough pages on forum for me to list my foul ups. Can't hardly type my hands are too cold. Working outside and temp is 21, guess that's going to be a heat wave according to what's coming Thurs and Friday.

I think it might have got to 15 here today, got down to -5 last night. The forecast is calling for 3-5" of snow here late Wed/early Thurs, then windy Thurs, Fri and Sat even colder. Had to haul beans today, didn't have any problems, but was nervous about it being so cold. Plenty of Howes and fuel filter heat apparently does the trick. The elevator in town didn't add anything to their fuel and they had at least 5 or 6 trucks and pickups gel up yesterday. I don't know what they were thinking, they know their fuel is a biodiesel blend. Kinda looks bad when the fuel delivery truck gels up!
dairyman Thanks this. -
Gettin' my hopper Tuesday, I'll be official here then.

That low sulfur fuel gels real easy too. I've had that happen last two years. Forgot to put the Howes in soon enough.RW. said: ↑I think it might have got to 15 here today, got down to -5 last night.
