Our introduction to keeping chickens, the high's, the lows and pics of our journey.

Yes she does . Just playing around with the settings , this camera is a little more high tech than mine. I love this pic, she took this in the French countryside. The water hole is a bomb crater.

Destruction creates new life. Beautiful. This makes me want to dig out the Canon and play around with it a bit.

Lol, that's a clever ' play on words ' . Did you mean canon camera or canon to blow a few craters in your backyard boom.?

Canon, not cannon. The backyard is put to enough of an test with the dogs and chickens already

Lol, with your sense of humour , one never knows. And with this confounded iPad constantly trying to make me spell like an American I feel as though I'm getting an accent.

I'm annoyed about the spell check correcting litre all the time.

Yeah, I get that too. I mix US and British spelling quite a lot though. And my accent is a weird one, I pick up influences really easily. I worked with Indian people last year, and had to concentrate really hard not to start sounding like Apu from the Simpsons. In Ireland they thought I was American though, don't know if that was meant as a compliment or insult

But one thing I love, is when you've been reading someone's posts on BYC, and then they post a video and you can hear their voice. The accents always throw me.

 

[Bens-Hens]

Yeah, I hear a few people talk on here and am like "ohhhh that's what you sound like"

Occasionally faces show up, often not what I imagined too. Early in this thread, I met a person who's username is @NovaAman I had assumed through seeing that name, it was Aman called Nova. Turns out was a very funny lady! Hi Nova!

Some amazing pic. I love the crater. I visited Wolf Crater a few years back on a work trip, that was made by a meteor, and certainly not as pretty. Not the best picture, I had to take two pics to get it all in, but the other pic have some people in it that would probably prefer not to be posted on the internet.

A big rock moving pretty dang fast can make a very big hole.

Today I went through a drive through.

25 years in the USA and I still cant order a diet coke through the speaker/microphone without having to repeat myself.

Here it's Coke Light, although no-one drinks that anymore, it's all Coke Zero.

I'm Swedish speaking, but the Finnish-Swedish is pretty archaic compared to that spoken by Swedes. And in Sweden, what i would order as a big mac meal here, would be big mac & co over there.
