FINALLY finally finally got caught up here! So many things I wanted to comment on, but now I probably won't remember everything. And I'm not going back to check. It was over 60 pages!
Anyway, the big road trip with sis went well. No problems. We drove through a lot of desolate country through Nevada, southern Idaho and eastern Oregon. Can you say SCRUB? For miles and miles, hours and hours, nothing but scrub. Seeing Crater Lake and the redwoods at the end made up for that. Pics to come when I have time to download. School is starting for both boys this Wed. High school for both, but different schools in different towns! I think one of them is going to be tardy a lot!
Granny, if you do sell your Seramas at the low price, get an agreement (in writing!) that you get free fertile eggs on demand, so maybe sometime in the future if you get the winter heating figured out, you can start again. Who knows, maybe she will pay more, $5 a chicken is too cheap. My older son has texture problems with food (cannot at raw carrots to save his life!), although he's more willing to try new things now, including food that's mixed together. Hope Tom is feeling better and you too. I wish Benadryl knocked me out like that. I'll sleep for a few hours and then BAM, wide awake.
Somebody talked about the EEl river. We were just there, and I don't think it qualifies as a river right now. Just pools of water here and there. No flowing water, a few fish, and no snakes that I saw! Sure hope we get some rain so it can be a real river again.
Braces and teeth pulling... that brings back memories for my eldest. He was completely missing a permanent tooth on one side, so the matching tooth was pulled on the other side and the braces went on to close the gaps and fix it all up. Been more than 2 years and he's starting his senior yr in high school with them still on. Took longer because he was slow to lose the baby teeth. Got that from me... all my fault. But he's going to have a lovely smile to go with his devastating handsomeness (his words! but true!)
Rosie and Ruby... I saw the first post about them 3 days ago and thought they were boys too.Was sad to see that others thought so too. Such beautiful birds. I got two English Orpington chicks to give to a broody hen. Didn't work, so I had to raise them, one blue one lavender, both ended up cockerels of course! Waaaah! Sold them at the feed store for very little, and hope they got god homes. They were great gentle beasts!
beautiful chicks wishing..yes my cochins are looking more like little roos everyday..sure hope i can keep them..it depends on how loud they will be ..i have close neighbors...
