Sorry to hear that. She had a great life.

Sorry to hear about Sissy.

I will definitely miss that voice. Sounded like a squeaky toy gate.

Oh, my friend Rachel made this for me. She knows me so well! She lives on a 38 acre farm in Hartwell, GA, used to have chickens.

That's gorgeous. What a wonderful friend.

I love the little squeakers too.

I had to search BYC to remember how old Sissy was. She was older than I thought, hatched in 2013. I thought she was younger than that.

Oh, I forgot to post a quick pic of Atlas since Karen mentioned she hadn't seen him in awhile. That poor old arthritic man, he is so sweet.

I love those prints, and the cute little flower on her head!

Good old Atlas, he is starting to look a little gnarly, isn't he?

Yeah, my old man is starting to look his age, for sure. He will be 6 on April 6.

As I mentioned, my younger son is slated to return to the U.S. March 3. I hope things don't conspire to prevent that and mess up his plans:

Ugh. The newest Wuhan Coronavirus infection is in my district (Songpa-gu) , and two of our school's students live in the same neighborhood as the patient. Those students have been told not to come to school for the time being, and everyone here has been wearing masks for a couple weeks. I suspect that parents will start pulling kids out of here. Some already have.




Christopher Bacon Update: Their apartment complex is huge, and they don't live in the same building. They can return tomorrow. The infected man is a plastic surgeon back from a conference in Singapore (or somewhere else in Asia that's not China). Most places he went since returning are partially or completely closed as the owners disinfect....or something to that effect.

I hope it works out for him, and he can get into the country. I don't think there are currently enforcing any real travel bans.
