Tuesday

It was ten degrees below freezing with a wind this morning, it was too cold to do much other than try and get water out for the chickens.

It stayed cold all day and water would freeze in the sun. I decided to install the new version of Ubuntu on my desktop but it never would load so I ended up after much work going on and installing Pear OS on the system as it is based on Ubuntu and works pretty good. The only problem is that some of the processes are in French which well is Greek to me.
I went over to Tractor Supply this afternoon and got chicken feed but it was cold and windy and not a pleasant trip. When I put Dusty up tonight, I gave him corn and broke the water at the edge of the pond but it wasn't very think and most of the pond wasn't frozen. Put up the young chickens with the light to keep them warm. It has been a miserable day to do anything outside and I have been burning wood constantly all day.
