I alternate between cleaning my house and outdoor chores… too often I ignore my house in favor of “playing”, so it’s about time I do more than a swipe and a swish to clean things up! It *is* SPRING… While cleaning my light fixtures of bugs is rewarding… it’s not very photogenic… it isn’t very…

It was time to move the chicks… they’ve outgrown their little pen in the wood shed! Since I also still have my older chickens, I moved the young ones out to the milking shed, and avoided any conflict between the two ages. I had help today… Aren’t the Barred Rocks BIG? The were very funny…
Tempting Work
The weather has been amazing here of late. I believe Vernon told me in the past 40 days, we’ve received over three inches of rain and wet snow. That is simply, simply unbelievable. And it’s cold. I mean, in the 30’s and 40’s cold. With wind. Yippee. I’ve been hiding out indoors. Sitting around. Of…
Loved
Rumor has it, someone had a second birthday party today. Here’s hoping it was full of thrills. Our best to you, Miss Lorelei! You are loved.
Strutting Their Stuff
