Thanks to jtbrown, spacecowgirl, and Skitz
On a side note, I have now learned that one of my oddly colored ladies is apparently a Black Copper Marans, or at least mostly... https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?...831023148762.103626.1635885362&type=1&theater Guess the "barnyard mix" from the feedstore (and their source...) is truly an eclectic mix of mutts!
Hi and welcome! Love your creed...I try to live by one very similar myself.
And, I'm blessed enough to live right around the corner from the mini-mall (landfill).
Your comments about the women who formed you gave me a smile. I got my heart shaped by a "depression era" grand-ma. Thanks for sharing that and a great intro. Best wishes in all you do.
