It's been cool and overcast here the past couple of days and rained the past 2 mornings. I assumed it was like this all over the state, but as soon as we climbed the hill out of North Bend on our way to pick Alex up from camp, I was surprised to see SUNSHINE and warm weather! Last year, Alex and I watched the ZBlue Angels at Sea Fair from a nice little spot on Mercer Island - It was raining hard, but sunny in North Bend!

Shortly before we left the house today, must have been near the end of the air show, 3 fighter jets zoomed overhead, very loud and very noisy! Should have seen the chicken, initially they all ran just a few feet, squaking like mad, and then they all froze and stared up at the sky, even the roosters!

Bit of advice - -there is a guy in Orting who sells birds and coops. His name is Don. When I didn't know what I was doing I bought birds from him. They were sick and most of them died. He has adds on Craigs list every day. I'd avoid them.

The very best birds I have are ones I have gotten from folks on this forums. You know, chicken-lovers - not chicken-traders.


Oh -- this thread moves really fast. If you git a bit behind, no worries

no sales tax in Oregon ....

But doesn't Washington have no state income taxes?

That is correct

I guess this means I am back. I don't know why I left. The cold has made me a rather non functioning person these days.

I'm glad you are back. You have been missed. Just this morning I was thinking of you wondering if you were still around.

Russ- Yeah, and I know about feeling non functioning.

I am going to try to not disappear again, but if it stays this cold for this long I don't know if I will be able to stop myself from disappearing again. I don't mind the grey, but I am just not into the cold.
