It's one of those small towns...I got a ticket for going 57 in a 55 zone, Spent most of the night under watch of a very nice policeman.

 

That was back in 1979 or 1980, as I recall.

Waiting for the coffee to finish brewing. It's far too early to be awake.

I'm up before the chickens.

Hah, you got that right. The dogs woke me up for their breakfast and potty, and I usually go back to sleep after that. Not this morning, too awake!

My dogs are sound asleep. Creating an obstacle course between me and the coffee pot.

Another morning that we must make our own sunshine

700But with the help of friends it's an easy task.  So grab yourself a cup of coffee and lets sit about the task of creating a smile.

When having problems with chickens stop and think, what would Harlan do?
I've dealt with many thorns in my life and the flower is always worth the effort.

welcome-byc.gifWelcome to the new folks!  Really is nice to see some new 'faces' on here!  Hope to keep seeing you.

 

I'm not that far from one of you, being east of Manistee.  Well, city folks might call it far, but country folks don't!

 

Someone asked about identifying silkie chicks?  

Black skin, five toes (preferably feathered), and a fuzzy top on the the head that will turn into the nice puff later.

Here's some good pics of new chicks from elsewhere on this site

Second year flock mom - so far have 2 EE, 4 BO, 4 BA, 5 Silkies, 2 Peafowl, 15 Araucana, 2 Lavender Orpingtons and 1 Light Sussex - PLUS lots of new chicks and even more hatching.  Barn mom to 2 QH, 1 mini horse, 1 mini jack, 1 new baby mini mule and 2 dogs.  I have not reached 'enough' yet!

We have a bit of liquid sunshine here.

Unfortunately Mr. Duck is not smiling this morning.  Last night 4 wild mallard hens flew into the yard. They ate and hung around for about an hour then left before sundown.  They must have said something to the 2 young hens. They are gone and the drake is going crazy looking for them.

Im heading out in just a bit to pick my daughter up from Camp Ohiyesa somewhere past Camp Dearborn in milford. my husband has always driven to get her, but this time I am going by myself. 

Anyone that way know how the construction is on 96? They have asked that we do not arrive before ten- and I have no idea what time to leave. Id rather be early than late.
