Pennsylvania!! Unite!!

Wish you were closer! I am hardboiling the turkey eggs and feeding them to the chickens, I have so many. Almost as bad with the bantam ducks, but their eggs are tasty, so I'm selling or giving them away for consumption.

So what will you have for me tomorrow? :lol:

@AnneInTheBurbs I saw this on Facebook this morning and though of you lol. I love it!

That’s me 100%. :lau I picked a window of out someone’s trash last week. I didn’t even have my truck and stuffed it into the back seat of my sedan. Turns out it was a brand new window with even the mounting screws included. One of the double panes was broken, so someone had tossed it and it sat outside for a while. It’s perfect for my coop. I’ll post pictures once I install it. :D
 
My rhubarb is coming up. It’s not been quite right since a landscaper mowed it down a few years ago, and iintroduced Morning Glory to my property from a previous job.

Anyway, what do I do right now? Will hoeing around it keep the vines away?

I think it should, as it’s an annual I believe. @dheltzel is the go to guy for horticulture questions. The problem is how many seeds they throw per year. The seeds have a heard coating, so they can come up later, after you may think they’re all gone.
 
So I haven't photo bombed for a while... I have been slacking, lol... so here are some recent photos from the broody zone....
