Dac\u0103 la ora\u0219, episodul de iarn\u0103 sever\u0103 a \u00eensemnat claxoane, nervi \u0219i telefoane care au transmis \u00een zori mesaje RO-Alert, \u00een satele din B\u0103r\u0103gan, viscolul nu a l\u0103sat loc de sup\u0103rare. Sub n\u0103me\u021bii care au \u00eengropat cur\u021bile \u0219i drumurile, oamenii au pus m\u00e2na pe lope\u021bi \u00eenc\u0103 de la prima or\u0103. Au desz\u0103pezit poteci spre grajduri, au f\u0103cut culoar p\u00e2n\u0103 la lemnele pentru foc \u0219i s-au asigurat c\u0103 animalele au ap\u0103 \u0219i hran\u0103.<\/strong><\/p>\nPe \u0218tefan Iosif \u00eel g\u0103sim \u00een timp ce desz\u0103peze\u0219te cu\u0219ca \u00een care satu c\u00e2inii gospod\u0103riei sale din Smeeni. Troienele au acoperit-o aproape complet dup\u0103 o noapte de viscol n\u0103prasnic. Din fericire, c\u0103\u021beii sunt la ad\u0103post, \u00een grajd, al\u0103turi de oi. St\u0103p\u00e2nul i-a b\u0103gat \u00een\u0103untru imediat ce a aflat c\u0103 vine urgia.<\/p>\n
\u201ePe noi ne-a sunat p\u00e2n\u0103 \u0219i vicele, ne-a zis c\u0103 vine z\u0103pada, s\u0103 ne preg\u0103tim, s\u0103 ne punem la ad\u0103post. Dar nu am fost at\u00e2t de speria\u021bi. Noi de abia a\u0219teptam s\u0103 ning\u0103. Ce putea s\u0103 se \u00eent\u00e2mple\u201d, ne spune \u0218tefan.<\/p>\n
De trei zile, t\u00e2n\u0103rul gospodar e mai mult cu lopata \u00een m\u00e2n\u0103. O las\u0103 jos doar c\u00e2t s\u0103 bea un ceai fierbinte sau s\u0103 m\u0103n\u00e2nce ceva pe fug\u0103. \u00cen rest, d\u0103 la z\u0103pad\u0103 f\u0103r\u0103 oprire. Curtea e mare, treab\u0103 e mult\u0103, iar n\u0103me\u021bii nu se dau du\u0219i u\u0219or.<\/p>\n
\u201eAcum fac o potec\u0103 s\u0103 ajung la porumb, s\u0103 d\u0103m la animale. Pentru agricultur\u0103 cu c\u0103 e bine, e foarte bine. La gr\u00e2u, la prima cultur\u0103, e nemaipomenit\u0103 z\u0103pada\u201d, spune \u0218tefan.<\/p>\n
