Hello all.
We are getting there with spring. Still some snow on the ground. The bounty of it this winter has made for large piles and still a lot left to melt.

My father lost his battle with cancer two weeks ago. So been sorting out that business with mom and the sisters. If I may give advice. Get poop in a pile and sort that stuff out with arrangements and trusts for transfer of cars, properties, etc. dad had a trust made but he did not have funeral home arrangements handled. Stress for Mom. It’s sorting itself out though.

I got Acer rubrum saplings today from southern Illinois. Thank you Jerryse.

It will be just a bit yet for planting. I need to trim those apple trees of mine while it’s cold here.

7 little hens got short free range time tonight after work. It was windy though and they were a little nervous . Not used to it after 5 months of white. Alot of snow to navigate yet out there. Easy pickings for a fox. In search of a rooster. I might wait for an Ameraucana one if he’s nice.

Fun to see the barnyard babies.

Sorry BC

This weekend I had to make maple syrup. We got home from a trip. Kids wanted French toast and I had a half a squirt of golden griddle.

2 cups of sugar. One cup of water. 1/2 tsp of mapleine.

TA-DA!!!

That almost seems to be cheating...

mapleine is artificial flavoring so it's not really cheating

Morning all, my yucky cold is gone

Morning Erli! You’re up early celebrating that cold being gone.

We have two new inches of snow this morning! I wonder if BYC will consider the middle finger emoji.

A coating of that white crap here, at least a thumbs down emoji!

It snowed off and on here yesterday, thankfully it didn't stick. Forget spring, I'm ready for summer.
