Hey Shelly,

How close to the TN border are you? I do not think I am going to be able to make it but want to send goodies anyways and was thinking if nothing else maybe I could bring my goodies to you and you could take them with you, or eat them . . . ya know lol

There is still the slim chance I make it but it is looking more and more like it isn't going to happen . . . . pregnant ppl, jeeze lol

 

[jywel417]

wow, that mille fleur d'uccle thing is getting toooo confusing for me so I will just bow out now.

I'm in Adair County, I believe we are about 60 miles from the state line. I'm just north of Lake Cumberland, it's about an hour's drive (from the lake), thanks to the winding roads. I can PM my address and stuff to you, if you want to check and see. Wasn't there another person that was coming from TN?

I'm am glad so say that the county fair is just 1 more day lol. There has been LOTS of drama in the poultry barn. But on a good note I took Champion in Senior Showmanship!!

Also on the birds I took Champion in Brooding and Raising Pair with Kernal and Iona! I got Reserve Champion in Laying Hen with my mean ol' hen Krispy! and the best of all...... I took Best in Show with my little Black Bantam Wyandotte BB!!

I'm still sooo excited!


Shelley There were 4 Dutch Bantams there and I thought of you right away LOL!

I've only sold 2 boys so far

If I can't get rid of atleast 3 more then no new chickens for me.....

kk cool, mapquest sends me weird way but I should be able to bring stuff to you if I am not able to make it. I hopefully will know in the next couple of days!

 

[shelleyd2008]

That's fine, just let me know. As far as I know, I'm still going. I haven't heard anything to the contrary.

Thanks for thinking of me AC

Unfortunately, I think I've lost one of my hens. I know she was going in the woods (or weeds) and setting on a nest, but I couldn't find it. I haven't seen her for a few days, but I've been sleeping late too. She could be out and about earlier than me, I hope

So that leaves me with only one.
