BD, we NEED your super great organizational skills for a meetup!
We've done a couple, I think, since you've been away but no where near as big as the ones you organize.

I'm in!

Maybe U can move into my rental. LOL. Chickens welcome. Ducks preferred.

Ha! Where is it? Redmond won't work for us.

I thought he was referring to Blueducklings who hasn't been on in a while, but Mia is very welcome here.

OK U all, rub it in...

I admit I haven't been on for a v e r y long time, but my thoughts were with you...that must at least count for something.
Who is game for a big giant pot of curry? Is there a meeting somewhere soon? I have an urge to cook a big batch of something not duck related.

I'm in.

They looks so real, well done.

Those are the real photos, but the watercolor paintings almost look identical...and thanks!

I bought some at our FM, but I haven't tried them yet. The last (good!) ones were from a stand in Wedgwood, on 35th Ave, IIRC. They drive them up from Olympia. That was a couple of weeks ago - I have no idea how long they'll be there.

From reading the thread it appeared to me that:
that CR was a nice guy
he was talking to blueducklings
teasing is allowed
people have a sense of humor

Yuppers!!

You are fittin' right in!!

oh yes, we have no bananas

but we do have another green egg

some of the shredded paper I used for their nest box, apparently still had some sticky stuff on it

couple of paper shreds were clinging to the egg

when I pulled them off ... off came some of the brown-coating of that egg, and the pale blue shone through, like blue sky after a storm

******
wish these patches of blue sky would stick around, but it is blowing like crazy (30 mph or so, the trunks of the big oaks are swaying). so the blue scuds along as if herded by white-cloud shepherd-dogs

smart chickens, they're all hunkered down on the roost in the small coop --41 inches seems to be just right for 6 pullets and a cockerel

***********

oh drat, I just realized -- with DS living elsewhere ... either I learn how to manage the riding mower (big hydraulic commercial machine), I buy a conventional lawn mower (which I know how to operate), or we hire someone to come in and butcher our weedy grass -- almost an acre and a half of it
