What if I'm not a people? Do I still get to have a good morning?

Two minor points:

1: The statement was self explanatory
2. Do any peeples live in NW Iceland?

LOL Banty! You could be a Cheeper? I would assume that chickeners are cheepers. And yes, you can still have a good morning

Morning Ivie!

I got a load of feed yesterday. I saw you had a trailer out there free for the taking. I could use the windows but the other stuff was worthless, or I would have taken the trailer off your hands...

I also saw your new fencing. looked good, as I went by at 75mph...

Good Morning Chickeners . . . . a little grey outside and I wonder if that is the way it is to be today. I say that any weather is okay with me however, I miss that sunshine this morning.

Just to clarify - the dog that bought the farm next door was about three years old. The little boy that they have staying with them is 10 years old. And here is a little additional note of interest - he was married once many years ago. He and she have a 17 year old son together. After parting she married two different men and has had three children with them. This 10 year old boy is hers. Her children spend many nights at his house because she is messed up and he is not and he is that kind. So this little boy that is suicidal is brother to his 17 year old son. Her kids (honestly) always cry when when its time to leave. They don't want to leave his house to go back to Mom's house. You talk about a person (him) that is loving and kind. That is a true Christian attitude to me whether a person is religious or not.

Okay - down form the pedestal. Its remarkable to me. Oh! I am the only one on here plus a guest right now anyway. I could just keep going on and on and on.

Ok here is a hack I am kind of proud of . These handles often break where they join the metal . I do not dig a lot of holes anymore but one broke last week while I was digging a plum tree to move . I dig a hole alongside the tree to help get the long root out . Anyway I needed to set the post for the wood duck box . Got to thinking how to prevent breakage . So I found a left over chain link line post fit right over the handle . I cut the 6' piece into two 3' pieces . Slipped or persuaded the pipe over the wood . Drilled new holes and duct taped the top . A little heavier but sturdy . I would not want to dig all day with it but fine for my use . Now to figure out a fix for the shovel I break while giggling trees . I currently slip 1 1/2 ' PVC pipe over the handle . Bulky but the do not break .

What is that strange device? Is it a machine of some kind?

Where does the operator sit? What does it do?

In my endeavor to cut back on my gardens - last year I began to mow a small portion that I know includes tulips. I just did not know where the tulips where because they were bloomed, dried and gone when I began to mow. I figured I would dig them up out of what is now lawn when they bloomed this year. So I did that to some of them yesterday. I had let the flocks out for a few hours during this time. Of course when I dug out those tulips which are like a foot deep, all the girls get curious and start to go through all that good black dirt to find goodies. I was pretty into it when the neighbor across the highway (when there was little traffic wizzing by) yelled over that he had heard of crazy cat women but never crazy chicken women. I looked around then and saw that there were 14 hens helping me with those little piles of black dirt. I bet it was pretty funny.
