Silence Is Not Golden Here

What's keeping you in Hell? Ditch that sauna!

Would you believe I'm in Hell for my health? The low humidity is good for my arthritis, and for my lungs. Too much black mold earlier in my life - any kind of mold, and I stop breathing now.

It is our number 1 stop when my mom and I go to the big town. We have to drive 30-45 mins away for big stores.

We just have a Wal-Mart and Lowe's in our town

I've got a convenience store, a restaurant and a school. I live in such a big town that there's only buildings on 2 of the 4 corners at the one and only stop sign.

With enough space I think 17:2 will be okay.
I had 5:20 and only kept the most docile rooster. The rest were dinner.

How could they be dinner? I thought that your whole family is vegetarian.

I actually haven't taken any recently, but here they are at a day old. I'll take some new ones tomorrow.

Three of them are lighter in colour, with a lot of grey. No idea where they're getting that from as mom is whites and dad is mahogany. One is darker, also with grey, but it's starting to get a black fuzzy head. (They're about 5.5 weeks old now). They have 5 toes and feathered legs and feet. That seems to be the only silkie traits they have. The weirdest thing is that they have pink legs. Buckeye has yellow & silkie has blue.

Neat looking little guys! Can't wait for more pics! I'd love to see pics of their parents too.
Do you like my subtle hints?

A funny for you all.

According to the Milk Drinker, the mommy on the bus goes “No, no, no, no, no, no!” Complete with admonitory index finger waving.

Ouch. That's a brutal choice to make. Does the cold not bother your arthritis in winter? Or same deal, so long as it's dry cold?

Lowes and ACE hardware: 10 min
TSC, Walmart and Menards: 30 min
Subs, more subs, pasta, Mexican food, Sushi: 10-20 min

They have TSC and Menards in Germany?

I'm sorry, I just found out I didn't even answer your original question !!
It's a local supermarket that most towns in Canada have. I think they go by Frisian Bros now

IGA = Independent Grocers Association. Essentially a whole bunch of small town individual grocery stores that have a "parent " company.
Freson Bros is an Alberta chain (I don't think it's anywhere else). Totally separate entity. I don't know about where you are Black, but around here TGP (The Grocery People) are moving in to the small towns instead of IGA.

Never heard of IGA. I bet they have milk in bags.

I haven't seen milk in bags in decades! Now it's just boring cardboard cartons & plastic jugs.

It's the humidity that's rough - the heat and cold don't do much, but when there's a pressure change, it's painful to breathe, let alone move.
