Drive safely, have fun

made it fine to Bellingham, some heavy rain (and lots of highway spray) here and there, but surprisingly we went through some "nice" weather, blue sky, between showers though we could see the dark gray clouds hovering east and west of us (we went up 167 to north of Lynnwood, then I-5 the rest of the way

got here just before the serious part of rush hour; several accidents and "gapers' blocks" enroute, but nothing major, we even had time to stop at the Stilly Thrift Shop and buy a large tea mug and a bunch of plastic hangers (the timeshare place never has enough), and Bruce got a VHS copy of "The American President" since his DVD has quit playing and he HAS to watch that at least once a week

DS will take good care of chickens, phoned me to make sure of what we wanted him to do for them tonight (they have food for several days, and water enough too -- he will take the water into the house any night it is forecast to freeze)

Yeah, we got everything fed and watered and the sheep pen and chicken tractor moved and a bunch more zipties put on the chicken run- these are the heavier 14" ones, the green-tag brand from Home Depot (which has stopped selling the 3-M ones) and I had about two out of five break, still. Grrrrrrrrrr. If I get a few sunbreaks tomorrow I'll be back to screws-and-washers for the last two-and-a-half corners and then patching in a six-by-one foot discontinuity with zipties. Oh, and attaching the gate panel to the fence posts, I keep forgetting that, I really should just do it first.

I also managed to get another set of photos of the EE chicks, sort of- the Lumix resists autofocusing on chickens, so I just have one overhead shot of the nine younger chicks, six weeks old today, thus:

I need to somehow take more photos tomorrow, with no help, so I can get a decent "What Breed and Gender" post up. Any guesses on these guys? I'm pretty sure C,G, and *I* are cockerels- big, bright red, three-row combs on all of them.

*oops
