News feed

Good news! Remember the belt on the feeder that was broken? The part just got in (I'm blaming the slowness on my personal theory that all productive works stops between Thanksgiving and the new year) and two men came to replace it this afternoon. Hopefully it'll all run smoothly during today's second feeding.
