Well, since only discussions about chicks that include pictures count, I won't tell anyone about the bundle of super cute little chicks I got this morning plus the equally cute packing peanuts that were in the box with them.
How can packing peanuts be so cute (and eat so much)?
The trip into town did show how much rain we got here. Casper (a local pond that looks like Casper the friendly ghost) was not only full, but there was a lot of water coming out of the spill way. I have not seen it full since I have lived out here and it was very close to totally dry last fall. Water was standing on some fields also. More rain is supposed to be coming in a few days. Are we going to start getting floods? The bradford pear trees in town were so pretty in full bloom. The concentration of blooming plants in town is always so nice to see after the nothing out here. Just fields and pasture here.
