    Quote:Thanks, I think it is! Smelly but fun. Busy but fun. It's all my kind of fun.
    Noticed that you are in Chillicothe. My husband is a tech ed teacher who builds hovercrafts with one of his classes. They've gone out to the nation rally in Chillicothe three years in a row now. DS and I went last year too. It was so much fun. We're going again this year. It's the last weekend in June I think.

    Yup the Hover Rally and the Easy Riders bike shows are both big draws here in Chillicothe. Been to both and they were both a fun time for all!

    Don't give up hope. Mine said no then just resigned himself to the fact that we'd end up with them sooner or later... [​IMG]

    Quote:I think I'd still like to have a couple of khaki campbells too but I agree that the blue swedish are very pretty! I also want ancona ducks now too. At least I think that's what they're called. Need more room for more ducks though. Don't want to push my luck!
