Greetings from small town WA!

[upserstar]

Hello - my name is Julie. I live near a small town called Darrington in Washington state. You may have heard about the massive landslide a couple years ago... That's my community
Anyway - I have finally bought my house and some land and am starting to get things in order to welcome chickens into my life. I've never had them so am excited to read more of your expertise!
I currently have five dogs, eight cats, and a number of pigeons. I work in hydro generation and power scheduling. I Lao love volleyball and crafty stuff.
Look forward to learning!

Welcome Julie, I just joined today also, however I've been coming to the site for months reading and researching and planning. Everyone is very friendly and encouraging so I'm sure you'll find tons of useful tips and tricks. The learning center is a great place to start.
