I'm shocked. Never in a million years would I have expected to rehome THREE cockerels less than 24 hours after advertising them. He showed up and took them all.

Might be quite a hungry guy.

LF, moving to your neck of the woods would be an awesome experience!

I'll be waiting for you with open arms

Nope. They have a flock of pullets and want chicks in the spring. Even if they do, nothing I can do about it now.

Good morning Cafe !
Hear a dog bark every now and then.

We are the last road in town our 3/4 acre has it's own road.

Good Afternoon!

No school for me today. Had a funeral to go to. (My brother in law’s 103 year old mother.) Grey and windy today.

Yesterday was 73, sunny and calm. We took the two local grandkids fishing on the little lake that butts up to our property. The lake froze out two years ago and the DNR restocked it with walleye. They were thick and biting like crazy. They’d hardly get a line in the water and there was a fish on. The kids had a blast. I’m hoping our poor neighbor out fishing on his dock wasn’t wanting a quiet evening of fishing and contemplating life because it sure wasn’t quiet with us out there. “Grandpa! I got one! HELP!!” “Well, THAT’S not a keeper!” “I need another minnow!” Neither has really been fishing before. (GD is 5, GS is 8.) They each caught a few fish on their own, got their own minnows and GS leaned how to cast. He also watched Grandpa fillet the fish (we only caught a few that were keepers and kept a couple that were hooked too deep), examined the stomach contents, and then got to eat his fish after Grandpa fried them up for him. A good time was had by all. I didn’t even bother trying to fish because the kids kept me busy.

Hubby has split all the wood he cut last year that needed splitting. I stacked it, and we're about half way there, as far as this year's wood. He still has stuff to cut and drag out of the woods/field, so we have more to work on.

We split/stacked some wood for the "neighbor who had a heart attack." It's the wood that was a tree that came down in the August 2023 windstorm. Hubby cut it up, and it has sat since then. Not "hatchetable" though the neighbor's husband would try, so we said, nah, we can bring the splitter over and make short work of it. I don't think it took 20 minutes to split and stack.

Means the world to the neighbor I bet. No one came to help you either did they ?

Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready.

We are supposed to reach a record high today and tomorrow. 74 today and 76 tomorrow.

By the time they would have heard the splitter, figured out what was going on, and gotten ready, we were done. It really was not a big deal.

Hubby has gotten pretty dang efficient on the wood splitter. Depending on the type of wood, he can quarter a 12" diameter log in less than a minute.
