Bizzy, Fancy is complaining about my boring life. She wants to know why I can't have fun like you, hanging laundry and the like. I told her we'd do laundry next weekend, if that's what she wants.

Yes, it is still going, when possible!
Orpington Manor, you may keep Fancy for spring break, if you'd like to

MotherMal, if you send me a message with your address, I will get you on the list for a mascot when one becomes available. There are a couple of people waiting, however, there are several mascots that we haven't seen for a while, too. I need to track down the missing mascots again and get them moving

I have somebody very impatiently waiting for a mascot

Read the first post and MAKE SURE it is something tou can/want to do, then send me a message! Thanks!

Thanks, Heather! I will have a bit more fun with Fancy for spring break, which starts this Friday!

She must have fallen out of that treehouse and bonked her head! Laundry? Fun?

Bizzy, my life has been very boring lately for a chicken. If she had played an instrument, or sang, she could have been in a concert. But, she claims she really just likes to bake things and knit. She's a bit of a homebody. Today, though, I dragged her out of the house to go for a hike at a local reservoir. Seriously, I told her what we were doing, and saw her getting ready. I made the all call to get in the truck, but realized about 5 minutes into the trip that Fancy had not gotten into the truck.

I had to go back for her, and was she ever mad!

Still, it was such a nice day that she soon forgot about that little *incident*. We arrived at Del Valle Reservoir, in Livermore, CA, and began our search for eastbaychicks. We soon found them, after we talked to everyone in the park with a weimeraner. (We were just a bit late due to the detour at the beginning of the trip.) We had a great hike, while the dogs ran and swam. (The park has an off-leash dog area. Cool!)

Here we are at the end of the hike. Everyone checked out Fancy's scrap book, and had a few pics with her. Haley, the weimeraner, really seemed to like Fancy, although we're not sure if it was Fancy's winning smile, or her meaty drumsticks.

So sorry about that Fancy. No one wants to be dinner.

Check it out.... left to right: karma and her dog, Bart, Orp and Fancy, and eastbaychicks and her dog, Haley. Haley was moving around, and making it hard for eastbaychicks to concentrate on the camera. But, we got the pic!

here's another one by my truck, so you can see eastbaychicks smiling.

Hee hee - your eyes in the second pic..

Love the story about Fancy not getting in the truck. And I have to say- kudos to you!! Carrying around a large stuffed chicken whle your friends had live pets. I can just imagine you and fany stopping people asking if they were eastbaychicks. Luckily, she is on BYC, so she understands. If she wasn't BYC member.. she'd probaby take one look at you standing there holding a stuffed chickn in a pink sweater and blue leg warmers- and deny who she as LOL. See , it takes a lot of courage and self confidence to be a mascot host!
It looks like she had fun.. even if she is a homely.. I mean homebody!

I came home today and in the distance this is what I saw:

I moved a little closer:

I couldn't believe it. Billy was fishing! In a puddle in the yard! Now, to his credit, the puddle is pretty deep in the center. Probably over his head. He was using a peanut as a bobber, and a paperclip as the hook.

I peeked in his "boat". He tried to say he caught all these fish in the "big lake". But it looks suspiciously like cat food to me.
