New fridge and new tires, too

 We got the borrowed fridge moved over this morning to make room for our new one. Lowes delivered it today.
 Here it is, all set up and ice maker running. I really missed having an icemaker. We switched the door hinges and handles so that it swings open to the left. That will be better for this kitchen setup.
 Heather's bad old (bald) tires. They have been on the truck since the early '90's. She really got every mile out of them.
 The nice new ones. I put them on the back and moved the rears up to the front.
 They replaced the baldies on the front. The tread was still good on these snows and they will make good fronts.
We taught Yogi to drink his milk from a bucket. Where food is concerned, he is a quick learner.

Moving Harvey and Southern Lights

 Lisa decided to call him Harvey. He went to his new home this morning. It was getting very crowded in our little barn, and he'll have more room now.
 We went to the Southern Lights display at the horse park with Lisa and Jim tonight. It was a beautiful display.
There were a lot of very elaborate displays and a quite a few with animation. It made for a very pleasant evening.

More cattle

 I hooked the truck and trailer up yesterday so I could get an earlier start. As it turns out, I was there over an hour ahead. It wasn't as far away as I thought it was.
 This is the extremely narrow road going in the the farm. I'm glad the farmer was kind enough to meet me out on the main road and lead me in. I never would have found the place.
These are the newest "Larrys" for our freezer in a few years. One holstein and two more jerseys. They haven't been named yet. Any suggestions?
