Blowin' In The Wind

If as they say "the answer my friend is blowin' in the wind", then I should be the smartest person on Earth.  The wind never stops blowing around here, but sadly,  it is making me more frustrated than smart.   Wind, gray skies and all, I forced myself to wander around the farm and find something, worthwhile or not, to shoot.
 See if you know the answer blowin' in the wind to these questions. I'll number them in case you want to post your answers.

So, in no particular order...

1.  Who had a birthday yesterday and didn't get flowers on his grave because it was snowing?
 2.  Why do we have two cans of this lying around?
 3.  What are these used for?
 4.  What is this sign advertising?
 5.  What is the purpose of this cool looking piece of metal?
6.   How did I come to own such a good old sewing machine?
 7.  Which Arctic Circle is missing a window?
 8.  What is it?
 9.  Will the food storage in the mirror be edible when needed or will the dog treats on the top shelf be tastier?
 10.  How sad is the amputated apple tree feeling right now?
 11.  When will the sky be blue again?
 12.  Will Jasmin actually dig herself out of the kennel or is she just trying to bury the ball?
 13.  Is Boyd's loader removal device patent worthy?


 14.  How big is this hinge in inches?
 15.  What model tractor displays this insignia?
 16.  What lives in this wood pile that so fascinates my dogs?
 17.  Is it the same creature that is destroying this log?
 18.  Does this look like an elephant leg to anyone else?
 19.  HUH????????
 20.  How many times can we add to this pile before the tractor gets stuck?
 21.  How long does it take my goats to strip the bark off of a branch?
22.  Have you ever seen cuter baby goats than these?
 23.  Will I ever get to have baby goats again?   These guys turned seven this week (April 2nd and 4th).
Let's see who knows (or thinks they do) the answer to any or all of these questions.
