I am making pretty good progress on the chicken coop.

The whole roof is tacked on, the wire roof for one run is up, just needs a little more work. I also got the hardware cloth on the front, but i left spaces for nest boxes.

Typical reply to any complaint - "Well, you're not 25." When I suggested the need to see a cardiologist as my father died of a major heart attack at 69 and his brother at 65, he replied, "Well, you've beaten both of them."

Me too!

I had a cousin die of a heart attack at 48 years old!

(not too high of a bar though....)

Coop looks great Cap Doc thinks I may surpass my Ma she was just like 78 when she passed, Grandma was 113 but her brain went in early 80's

Have you had a cardiac evaluation ? I insisted, and apparently other than a non symptomatic aortic valve insufficiency I'm basically okay = just something to keep an eye on.

Thanks, i wanted a skylight because there is no power in this area. I want to put a window in on the right end as you look at the coop from the front.

I had one in 2007 before back surgery. It was more of a fit for surgery screening though.

I need to get a small run covered before the rain starts. I might put a clear panel on top

Gee isn't HE helpful! Maybe you want a new doctor.
