Good morninig and Shalom you too!
 
The trick we found is summer is OK as long as you are willing to wake before dawn. :D. Go out see the sunrise and enjoy the park until 10. Then go in and take a nap/relax until after 3. After 3 you can start to go out again and enjoy the sunset.
That was how we enjoyed the grand canyon. The first day we stayed out past 10, I was shocked at how quickly the park filled with idiots. (There was one family. The teen boy was standing on top of this pillar nothing around him but a steep 2 mile drop, he had to have jumped from the ledge to get on it. And there was his mother watching him taking pictures :/ ) But its seemed most left a little after 3 and you could enjoy yourself again.


I used to work in Grand Teton National Park. It always amazed me how many people didn't get out and about until after 10. By then you've missed almost all of the wildlife and your staring at other people doing stupid stuff rather than the park.

Speaking of stupid stuff, any of you see that article recently of the lady petting a wild buffalo? This is when I truly understand Darwinism...,



Yes, I agree. Lol the men who raise buffaloes do not pet them. They are not even Bulls who are very domesticated just occasionally get ornery....idiot woman
Yes but some of them are wacky. I just figure this way you, and others can ignore the unhelpable ones.


True... but if it's one you feel needs help that could use it, just holler... even like Walnut did works, lol...

Nope, haven't seen it...

But I have pet a rhino... :D


Yes but sometimes it is hard to tell with the first post how wacky they are going to be. I sent the woman screaming about loosing all her call eggs there too, but she is not helpable. She has been getting good advice and not really listening.
ETA: I will send tag you if they seem helpable, but do not hold it against me if some turn out to be wacky.

OK I need to make a decision. My 4 week old chicks should be going out into the run, but I still have my 6/7 week old chicks in it. They are together in the brooder separated by chicken wire, so they have seen each other.
Most of my 6 week chicks are layers so they are not too much bigger then my 4 week old meat birds, the Jerseys are still small.
My 7 week old birds are probably large enough to free range, they are red rangers I think. But there are only 3 of them, and I know from experience, my Barr rock will not tolerate them. The tractor is not complete, I need more hardware cloth.
So do I go ahead and combine the 4week and 7week? I figured I would move the broiler pen tomorrow to a new location, put in both waterers, and put the 4week in first, then bring the 7week in.
ETA: If i need to I can halve the run so they still cannot reach each other, I just would like to combine them if I can. I had always planned to combine them as they get old enough. Layers just grow so much slower then meat crosses

I would combine them - and just make sure it was at a time when I could be around to keep a decent eye on things for the first day.

Having spent time in Yellowstone I have seen my fair share of just absolute STUPIDITY --- the really frustrating part is that when things do go wrong the animals end up paying the price.
I also got to tell you all... I still don't feel "right" either... Strange kind of out of it.... Hopefully just need a little more sleep....
Take care of yourself, Phil, get some rest but if you still don't feel right don't ignore it.......

Good morning Oz! It's a nice one this morn! Oh my gosh! Yes, it's starting to sink in! Her friends slot of them are leaving state for college! I'm so glad she's going to Fort Hays State university across town

It's really hard to believe that 18 years has flown by! This is her last week of school!!! Graduation is on the 15th. She does have 1 more game this Thursday. Trying to get her party stuff together and organized. She's living on the dorms this fall she wants to experience the whole college thing. She's such a good girl. We put a book of pictures together for her. The last page says
"Don't cry because it's over...
Smile because it happened...
I am already having basket case moments!


My wife will be that way next near when the baby graduates.
