Yeah, I know this has to be one of the top 10 bad ideas of all time, but you have to admire this guy's mad stacking skills!

Lol, reminds me of some of the loads of hay stacked on trucks here. Did you see the one I posted of the full size bus/truck hay hauler last yr? Lol!
Local guy with a big 1ton high side dump truck stacks the heck out of his truck with firewood. I work with his son in law. Mentioned to him I was sure happy when he pulled over in a big hill to let me by, late for work. You rarely see a loaded truck pull over, shoulders on the roads are iffy.
He said he always pulls over, rather not have a block of wood fall off right in front of someone.

not a fan of graham crackers at all. As a small pup I used to like chocolate covered grahams & would bite each side off and dunk in milk. That was good!. But regular grahams just mush up and fall off - ick.

Also don't like the dark oreo parts used as crust or trim - blah! My mom loved them.

I don't like Oreos at all. Rather have an oatmeal cookie any day!

Is the pillow going to precede a gift of a new rifle?

We don't have graham crackers in our house, nor saltines or Ritz etc. Sometimes I hide a sleeve of crackers to go with venison summer sausage and cheese. If I don't hide a sleeve I don't have them either, have to eat it without. We buy them but never have any, disappear, two legged rats steal them...

I just realised I am going to need to make my bed before i can sleep in it tonight because i did laundry. Maybe the cats will help

Chocolate covered graham crackers... I got one better than that. Chocolate MINT covered graham crackers. The local C&R has them. Give me a big tall glass of ice cold milk and a package of those babies and I am in hog heaven. They taste like the girl scout chocolate mint cookies.

We're hard on crackers in this household also. We love them. Many afternoons, DH and I sit down with a sleeve and a jar of peanut butter. Instant pick me up.

@superchemicalgirl Is that crochet your own design? It looks very folk artish. I love it.

I scraped up enough energy today to go out back and rake up leaves for two of the coops. The Bantams weren't too impressed until they discovered that there was bits of grass and other treasures in the leaves and went to work digging in them. I went out at dark to lock up and the stupid standard sized birds weren't wanting to go in. They were standing outside in the dark with 4 or 5 standing in the door way giving the leaves the stink eye. After about 10 minutes of trying to urge them in and impatiently tapping my foot, I took of my hoodie and started flapping it around. They decided the leaves weren't nearly as threatening as that evil hoodie that was popping them on the butt.

Tomorrow off to the woods to gather as many bags as we can for the winter. They have had very little rain on them and are perfectly dry.

Lucky you! Here they look dry but the leaves on the bottom are soggy. I have been raking them up and throwing them in the runs any way but they are not dry enough to bag, darn it!

I went out to lock the new coop up it is not as large as the other so I maximize space letting them roost on nesting boxes but smaller birds slept in them girls laying eggs in the corners there is just 5 birds 1 cockerel letting him stick around nice to have one to sound the alarm if needed
