This thread is for Recapping all the highlights... Well the gist of all the things, BS, and general fun of the "EVER BUSY" Michigan thread... I'll post on either Friday night or Saturday... Maybe sooner if the thread is over loaded with posts and need a mid week catch up.

Week of June 24 through 29-30ish...

Sunday, not much of much was said really, just a general round of comments on the totally fun CS event. Daron finally posted pics of his emus. SO CUTE. No, I do not remember the post number... I really didn't think to right it down. (KEY WORD: THINK)

RaZ got skunked. AND by more than just his skunk. He's going to jury trial, looking at possible jail time. That CRIMINAL! Apparently they do not have anything better to do that make an example out of a guy with birds. I have 2 birds I'd like to show them, but I think that may be inappropriate. Guess I could just show them to his stalker neighbor and child, WHO by the way decided to leave a lovely comment that has been removed. But the gist is, We don't care what they say, we are on Team RaZ.

I finally caught some coons. I give 5 stars for duke coon trap.

Swampducks started a chickenstock thread for N. Michiganders... https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/682327/michigan-chickenstock-north-2012-august-or-september. Silly chicken also started the chickenstock 2013 thread, please take a look and considering volunteering for one of the positions to help make it even better next year.
Daron has WAY TO MANY eggs in the bator. I think it was something over 300!

Good luck with your goals there Farmerboy!

TC from over Washington way got us posting our faces for our avatars this week... Putting faces with names. I am sure that some should look like donkeys, but then... That would not be very family friendly.

Sisters surgery went well. She's continuing to recover.

Juise has gone off the map..

Babigyrl dyed her silkies pink. She's trying to convince Lady Gaga that her next odd ball stage gown should look like pink watermelon covered silkies.

RaZ is down another duck... flew off to places unknown. Mom needs to restock him with orphans as soon as he's done with court.

Stacykins has admitted to not liking math. THEREFORE we should pester her with algebra problems.

And RIRJen said Holy Vaulted Skulls Batman... I swear, she must have been watching tvland or something...

AND we've had a few new members join our circle of friends... Which is another good movie.

OK, I will edit later, tomorrow if anything happens between now and then that should be posted.

PLEASE PRAY FOR FARMERBOY'S BRO AND SIS IN LAW, AND THE REST OF HIS FAMILY. ESPECIALLY FOR PRECIOUS MICAH, WHO IS YET TO BE BORN AND IN NEED OF PRAYERS AND A MIRACLE!

Good job Nova. I like keeping up with y'all, but no way am I reading all those posts. Hoping things will be looking up for your sis. BTW, what did you guys do to Juise at chickenstock?

WHEW! What a week of heat!

Daron's family continues to need our prayers or good juju depending on your preferences. Lord knows that his SIL is going to need some serious comfort in the coming weeks.

We've had some near losses, and then losses after all, sorry Mom2. Several people ill from heat, prayers that you all are better and this current day is pleasant all the way around.
As usual, we've had a few new members join our crazy crew, some have stuck around more than others... Actually, what does that say about us?

Actually, in the way of chit chatting, and things going on, this has been a pretty dead week. I do believe most of us spent a lot of time keeping the birds and bunnies as comfortable and alive as we can. I forget, kinda, the lady, maybe the guy, who lost 7 of his meaties to the extremes in temps.

There was quite a discussion that went on for a few days about the raccoon issue with rabies and other transferable diseases, as well as the need to control the population. Some agree, some don't, some don't give a rip in reality. Me for example... Just stay away from my birds, and you can continue to live, mess with em... kiss your sorry tail adios. Olive.... Olive OIive Olive... Its her fault. She started it. HEHE, totally kidding here. It was a really good discussion in the case you are interested in reading what transpired... Posts on the topic started on Page 4081... With the then 32 count RBahmer had removed, and followed shortly after with the 6 that Olive had to dispatch, to the then comments that really kicked off the discussion on the next page from Trefoil. For the next 4-7 pages... maybe a bit more sporadically... Well anyway...

Tap got to go camping. Silly took off for Kentucky... Ah the Blue Ridge. Great motorcycling through there. Swamp went pontooning and didn't invite us all to go and swamp her. I wonder how many of us could get on her pontoon before it listed dangerously... AND could we run back and forth from one side to the other and see if we could get some serious rocking motion going... Oh gracious, I am getting sick just thinking about it. I can not do boats... yack!

RaZ graced us with beehive pictures... And had his cockerels processed.

Daron's Porkie Chop is knocked up. And his Maybelle has turned a nice rusty red/brown. Guess she wanted to be like the chickens. Start one color, finish another.

Hmm... Oh, and Opa has been very quiet lately, Olive had more damage done to her garden with a passing storm, some of us are having great luck with our gardens so far, and... Thats pretty much it for this week. Again, not a whole lot was going on with the heat.

Have a great week all.
 
Thank you thank you thank you Nova!

I just got home last night from my mother and father in laws and I am 700 posts behind!

Daron, could you updat me on your sister in law?
Nova, how is your sister?

Also, it sounds like Mom2 lost some birds? How did that happen?
I'll keep skimming and trying to fill in the gaps.

Thanks again Nova!
