Nooooo...too far to drive

Everything in Texas is a far drive. It's over two hours for me one way with birds in the car to go as a vendor, but I still do it. lol

Do you ever go to trade days at Canton? I never go anymore, but they do have chickens there. I've never bought from trade days because I don't want to deal with quarantinees.. is that a word?
Like detainees only in quarantine?

I've been but have never brought birds home from Canton. I know a few of the people that sell out there. I've just never felt the need to attend as a seller or buyer. Most of the birds are flipped anyway.

Flipped? As in resold?

Like they are being flipped there. The people with them didn't breed them.

I was raised in Canton. Graduated high school.
Unfortunately, after many years dealing with first Monday traffic, I detest flea markets, or anything with crowds. I don't even like going to heb or big box stores.
Sighsssss

Can't blame you. I love it out here in the sticks, even though it takes me an hour plus round trip to buy groceries.

Me too! I can go days without seeing/hearing another human voice (record is 10-then I had to go town for milk) Even though my neighbor is close.
Sometimes I cam hear vehicle traffic, seldom see vehicles. It's louder in cold weather.

It's a cold one here this morning, 31°F. I have a thin crust of ice in some of my waterers, this morning. Heavy frost on the grass.

Cold here also, but beautiful.
