Hellbender, thank you. And thank your son. For both your sacrifices.
You need any help sending him christmas care packages?

Thank you ladies for your thoughts and very kind offers. I certainly appreciate it and I'm sure he would too but between me, his friends and church group, he's pretty well covered.

Buckle down the hatches on coops, warm bedding and such for this storm all you folks on the eastern part of the country!  I think we'll have some power outtages if we get what they say we will, so make sure you have all the necessities ready and all animals have enough water....might be hard to keep it unfrozen if relying on heated buckets and such.  Be safe, stay warm, snuggle down and ride it out. 

Been raining here all day and is still pouring it down.  The ice and snow that follows may uproot trees around these parts so we always get all the laundry washed up, take a shower, wash the dishes, etc. so that we are not caught too unawares.  All supplies ready and stocked. 

I'm heads out to get extra gas today. I'm headed out of town Sunday early & hopefully make it Florida before the storms hit. I'm going on cruise to the Bahamas and feel bad about missing the storm

But the girls will be set when I leave so my chicken sitters are set for the week. And the extra bedding for the hens will keep them toasty and give them lots to do. Even put out some homemade suet for them. And they have enough FF made up to last a week plus a container of dry ready to go.

X2 I agree...how cruel!!!!

Please take pics and brag here later!

The water in the Bahamas is so clear, so blue, so warm...and the best part? You can see the sharks coming from a mile away and can drag your carcass to the beach in time to escape certain death!

You are going to have some good eats, good entertainment and a great tan when you get back. I went on a cruise once and it was a wonderful experience...first time I had ever seen the ocean and I couldn't get enough! Went snorkeling off St. John and again off another island I can't remember the name of, saw a nude beach on St. Martin/St. Marten, took a catamaran excursion twice and ate my way through several buffets and elegant dinner shows. You'll be so tired when you come home! The entertainment lasts way into the night and you don't want to miss anything, so you have to sleep by the pool or on the deck the next day to catch up.

Bon Voyage, my friend!!!

Wish you were taking us along with you...can you imagine the fun that could be had with this group??? The Chicken Cruise.
