Let the girls out this morning....Blossom followed me all the way to the back door talking the whole way. She stood there talking at the closed door.

Coonhound got another squirrel today. Figured out he hides in a bush waiting for opportunity. Looks pretty funny....his big head is all you can see.

Might be just me....but when a hen stands straight up and stretches her neck....they rather resemble a bowling pin.

Nothing here is laying either. It feels weird eating eggs from chickens I don't know!

Aww...a gorgeous 70 here today! Then the rain shows up tomorrow and plagues us through the weekend. Bummer.
