We have still been pretty cool here. Most days in the mid-60's, a few cooler, not breaking 60, a half dozen or so in the 70's and a couple in the 80's. Not sure what it will be today, but I think it will warm up a bit. I'm going to fence my garden better. Darn chickens just killed my zucchini and strawberrys again, and ater all the bean plants. Grrr. 4' is too short. going for 7' deer fencing today, but what do I use for posts?

Drove the kids to seattle early this am and they are probably on the ferry now on their way to Orcas Island for the week. Anyone want to come over for the day (or slumber party ... I'm doing a thorough cleaning of the kids rooms!), PM me we can do beading or go get fruit and make jam. I'm going to try and make about 50 jars of strawberry and raspberry to keep the boy fed for the year. He's taller than Dad now!

so were are you getting the strawberrys at? I want to do jam and not sure if there are any left now?

Shhh don't tell but I have managed to sneak into somebody's net connection. THings are not so good here. LOTS of looky loo but no spenders. Have only made 2 sales all day and they were both to the SIL of the farm owner. Hoping things get better tomorrow. At least it is nice here, got a nice breeze. We also have an awesomw view. We are parked under a nice grove of cedar trees with a wonderfull view of Alpacas and Mt. Hood.

The looky loos may come back toward the end of the day. They may not want to carry something around all afternoon. We can hope.

I can always hope but since it is really not very big and most are only here an hour or so... Not bragging just saying for an idea I have the biggest "space" here. Here is mine before the others got here.

Which were your favorites? Are you going to emulate any of them?

I'd have to go back and look. I know I liked the last one a lot (97th?), though I wasn't into her color scheme. (For color, I liked the orange and green one). I tend to like walk-in (I guess it's aviary style?) coops. I still really like the Garden Coop, though after seeing that last one, I realize built-in storage space would be good. Also, the one that had the easily accessible compost bins - that seemed like a good idea.

I think we drove righ past you. The drop-off was at Meridian Park Elementary by Ronald Bog Park in Shoreline. We had to drop them off at 7 a.m.

Pick up is next Saturday at 4:45. DH will be with me, so I don't know if he'd be willing to stop; he's not very social, but maybe... If not, there will be other times. DS gets to go back to the camp in a few weeks, and only one kid then, so I may be able to go alone and let DH stay home with DD.
