Makes me SOOOOOOOO glad I'm not living in upstate New York 
.......sorry.
DH and I went for a walk back in the woods. The spring peepers are singing their brains out down at the creek but not a sound from the red winged blackbirds yet.
No big plans for the weekend. I did manage to get two wall panels cut for my rooster coop/tractor/transformation. Will get pictures for you tomorrow @CapricornFarm. Your coop building bug has bit me. That and I have to get those 4 boys in their own coop/pen at night. The alpha rooster is chasing them into the nesting box. I actually caught my Welsummer rooster sitting on two eggs. Dumb bird. They have been stomping around and breaking eggs so I was grateful for his consideration.
Walked the yard and found places where I can plant pumpkins and squash without too much trouble. Made plans to plant tomato plants and order some 'deck' corn from Burpees that grows in containers.
Need to work out my strawberry plants for spring. May be a challenge but hopefully doable.
Today has been a good day pain wise. What's that old saying? I feel so much better since I've given up hope or is it high expectations? Hmmm, anyway, plans are to finish up the rooster coop and figure out how to get it in the run. Work on the runs, turn eggs, feed the chicks and start taming them down. Mealworms....I need mealworms.....
