    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    We used to go ice skating a lot when we were teens. DH would good my hands and whip me around the edges of the rink lol. Now we're both a bit thicker than we should be, have bad knees, and I have a bad back (still waiting on my MRI to happen). I miss how much fun it used to be though. We're...

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    Good morning pond. Wind and rain on my lily pad the past couple days. Looks rainy today too and I'm supposed to be painting at work lol. Last weekend was the last weekend that I'd have to work for this season. Only 3 1/2 more weeks till winter layoff! I can't wait! @Alaskan you can keep that...

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    Good morning pond! We made it safely back home from Texas and DS made it safely to his new base. 2 days with him was definitely not long enough but we are glad to be home. We spent our second day with him, after the final graduation ceremony, at SeaWorld San Antonio and we had a lot of fun. I am...

    That it is not! Texas weather isn't even close to our Pennsylvania weather! DD is at home, dealing with a frost advisory this morning...We plan to put on shorts and a t-shirt and go to SeaWorld lol. Yesterday was wonderful and it was great to see DS, hug him and hang out with him. We went to...

    Now that sounds like a fun festival! We have potato fest going on right now in a town nearby and the Apply Cider Festival will be next Sunday at the park. I've been doing what I can to help prep for it since I'll be away all this week and can't help with the majority of the setup like usual

    Pennsylvania!! Unite!!

    I'm pretty sure on the Altoona area you're allowed 6 hens, no roos. I'm not positive but I'm pretty sure.

    Good morning pond! I'm dragging myself in to work. It's the last day of a 9 day stretch! 1 week from now, I'll be in Texas to see DS graduate from basic training! I'm counting the days!

    A century of Turkey talk 2000-2100.

    This was the first year that I did not hatch any poults. I have one hen laying now but I'm not going to attempt to hatch this time of year. Earlier in the year, I got some eggs but none of them were fertilized. I think my old flock is getting too old. Speaking of which, Sweet Pea is still...

    Feeding Wild Birds

    I haven't seen one in days either. I think it's time to take mine down. I'll get to it when I have the energy though. I'm on the second half of a 9 day work week. I'll have to refill my regular feeder with BOSS too. I know it's empty but there's still suet out there. I have to coat the BOSS in...

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    We have a couple of citrus trees that are too big/ heavy to be hauled into the house anymore. We pruned them up and shoved them in there. I also got a little mimosa tree start. It actually can live outside here but I feel bad because it's so small so I'm keeping it in the greenhouse for its...

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    I had fun with that over the weekend! The wording that it DID have was weird and confusing but most of it was without words! We did manage to get the greenhouse put together eventually though!

    Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

    We ended up with about 11 gallon liplock bags full. 6 went in the freezer, 2 went to my brother in law, 1 to my mom, 1 to my daughter's boyfriend's family, and 1 is in the fridge to go to work tomorrow for whoever is brave enough to try it lol. It's savory and delicious!

    Ended 2026 BYC Calendar Photo Contest - We Need Your Pictures!

    Voting tends to take a very long time, especially trying to work around everyone's schedules to get it done. Sometimes, it takes longer than expected. Try to be patient :)

    Good morning pond! The soup was a success! Good thing we stopped at 14 times the recipe (because that's all the hocks we could get our hands on). The BIG pot was full!

    Feeding Wild Birds

    There was still one female hummingbird hanging around this past week though I haven't paid attention the past couple of days. She was content to just come and perch at the feeder and rest between sips. That makes me think that most have already taken off since my feeder has been so competitive...
