tell me about it. i am sitting here this morning and i did my bible study and then i thought, "i'm going to sit here and relax a little."

that lasted about 30 seconds and my brain switched to 'clean out the incubator mode'. it was a good 30 second rest though!

Good Morning all!

The gardens are all planted. yeah!!!! Every 2 weeks though we will plant several more rows of sweet corn so we have it thoughout the summer.

Got to get ready to go to the Memorial Day parade. 5 old airplanes were flying this morning in formation at 7am. Cool to watch, and glad I live a couple miles from the airport!

Have a great day everyone and if you have or are serving our country....THANK YOU!!!

I'm from the thumb area in a town called Fostoria. New to chicken wrangling too. My wife brought 8 home in a cardboard box,4 ISA Browns ans 4 Black Australorps. Got them staying in an unused 'Dog-Loo' (the big one,used to have a Mastiff) until I get the coop done. Got done framing it yesterday. Now I have to put on the inner sheathing, insulation, outer sheathing, and finally the electrical for lighting and heat. This has turned out to be a big project. Reading up a storm to try to avoid mistakes. The chicks are a hoot to watch though. Especially now that I'm letting them out during the day into the run. Looking foward to the "Free" eggs my wife expounded upon too

Hello! Hope everyone is able to enjoy this beautiful day! Went and got the kids bikes today. Oldest DD is so enjoying her new bike. Bought the littlest DD a 10 inch bike. I know it's tiny, but she's really going to hurt herself -- she keeps trying to climb up on her big sissy's old bike. She strives to keep up with her big Sis!

MJ or anybody else out there. Do you buy your yeast in bulk? If so, where? I looked at Sam's Club -- they had it but was a big square cake. Just wanted to see what someone else did, too.
