The Rains Have Come ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
![]() The lakes and ponds in the area are still well below normal with many ponds completely dry, in spite of the rainfalls of late. Navajo Lake, just a few miles from the ranch in Arboles, is 68 feet below normal and while not a record, it is still disheartening. They have closed the marina on the Colorado side and the boats are having to launch much farther out than normal, but there is still life on the water and many folks are finding ways to enjoy the lake.

Lots of you report that you are feeding our meat to your pets. The lamb kidneys and the beef short ribs would make amazingly nutritious and delicious feed for your animals, and at these prices, very affordable as well.

In Closing ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am just a bit tardy getting our newsletter out this month, but I will save the excuses for another time. Allan and I are thrilled to report, though, that our daughter Lisa and her husband Garrett announced that they will be blessing us with another grandchild in March. We are all thrilled at the prospect, although Lisa's joy will be increased once she gets through the nausea stage, which hopefully will be soon. God bless you all and thank you so much for your prayers and good wishes.
Lois & Allan
