Hi guys,
How is everybody doing today? We are all doing fine. This morning, Dad said that we had four new calves! We had to get one of the cows in the barn this morning, as it was rather nasty out this morning, and the cow didn't really want to go...
Last Saturday, we had a pleasant surprise! Andrew and I were playing on our computers, when Dad came into our room, and said that we were going up to Bismarck for lunch! We went to our favorite place, and after that, Cora took us to the Circus!!!
It was a lot of fun, but I will let Cora tell you about it in detail. Anyway, is everybody ready for the muddy season? I know that I am not looking forward to it. Anyway, It is time for me to go now, so I will say goodbye, and I will talk to you all later.
Bye, Jacob B.

News and PC games...
Hi guys, what's up?
Not much is going on right here, as Cora left for her friends house early this morning; Mom left for Bismarck early this morning; Dad is pushing some snow around; Andrew is heading out the door to work on the tractor, and I am doing school... ;-(
'
This morning, there was a lot of frost on the fences and everything, and, although I don't like winter all that much, it was a pretty sight. Anyway, what do people think about the oncoming muddy situation? I know I am not looking forward to it.
By the way, if you are interested in Agricultural Simulator, here is a link to a video of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aw-pAU12A4 Be warned, it takes a fairly high-powered PC to run this game at any amount of quality. Note about video: really dumb music,so i suggest muting.

Snow again. :-(
Hi guys,
How are you all doing today? We are doing fine, although we don't really like the weather. :P It was so nasty last night that Cora stayed in town. She got home earlier, but now she is going to go down to help some friends that just had a baby...
We got rain and snow yesterday, but the snow was more like miniature hail then snow. You could just watch it come down and bounce off the ground. :-( And then when we wanted to go out to chores, the door was froze shut. :P
Cora just came in and said that she is not going to go down to her friends today, as the roads are still too nasty, so she is going to get up early in the morning and go, so don't expect much from her blog for a few days. Anyway, I had better get going.

Mud... :-(
Hi guys,
How are you all doing today? When I woke up, it was raining, and that means that we are going to be getting even more mud, and I think that everybody here would agree that we have too much mud already. :-(
Do any of my readers think that they have too much mud already?
Anyway, some more news about that game. It is actually unfinished now, but they are working on a new patch for it, and I think that should be the final patch. The game is actually set in the Swiss Alps, so a very pretty map, but all of the tractors and combines are made by Claas, a German brand, so that's not very American.
The game does still have some bugs in it, like not being able to buy the other farms, and grass stuff that was supposed to come with the game, but they say that will all be fixed in the new patch. All in all, it is a good game that still has a few bugs in it yet, but definitely worth buying if you have some spare cash... Anyway, I had better go.

A new Game
Hi guys,
I just bought a new computer game, but I have to write before I can try it out... It's called Agricultural Simulator 2011 Extended Edition. As the name suggests, it is another farming simulation game. You can visit the website here: http://www.agrar-simulator.de/
Don't let the website fool you, the game is actually in the English language, and uses American measurements, even though it says it is German...?! Anyway, it looks like it has some nice features that Farming Simulator doesn't have.
For example, the tractors and implements leave wheel tracks; you're vehicles get dirty; you have to buy your land; you can upgrade your garage, stables, and grain silos; and many other goodies. ;-) Anyway, time to go play some more. :P

Home School Convention in Review...
Hi guys,
We just got home from the Home School Convention last night, and seeing as it was like 10:00 pm, we opened the seven boxes that had came while we were gone, and then we all went to sleep, and most of us slept in this morning... :P
As I had expected, some of the workshops were interesting, some not so interesting, and outside of that time, I was either talking with friends, or walking around the outskirts of the building talking with friends, which I did a lot of yesterday...
Anyway, I just got off of my Farming Simulator site, as I was getting cached up on all of the mods and news that I had missed... Andrew is looking at video of the convention right now, and I am getting interested, so I will talk to you all later.
Jacob.

Home School Convention
Hi guys,
Today, Dad is going to be hauling hay home from our Hazelton ground; Mom and Andrew are going over to the Home School Convention; Cora is going to go work in Napolion; and I am going to stay home and do my school.
Right now, Andrew, Cora, and Mom are packing up all of our old school books to take to the used book sale, I think that Dad is outside feeding hay to the cows, and I am NOT looking forward to the two and a half pages of algebra that await me...
I just heard Mom say that they are done tearing apart the house looking for books, but now there is a huge mess all over the place... Anyway, I have to start doing my typing, and then I probably will start on algebra, so I had better get going.
See you later, Jacob.
