When chains are required on I-90 there are most always businesses in the chain-up areas that will install/remove your chains for a fee (20$?).

everyone needs to learn how to put chains on their own car.
And note: it is wet, cold a flash is needed, and after you drive a few miles stop again & tighten them up!!
And maybe even windsheild washer fluid that will not freeze and a pair of rubber pants or change of clothes after wards.
ALL Dads should teach all their kids, girls & boys alike.

Good to know - thanks VF. I'll make sure she has cash on hand with her.

I agree CL. When I made her buy chains last year for her first winter in Pullman, the guys showed her how to put them on. But she never had to use them and that was a year ago. I would love for DH to show her how to put them on, but in all these years I don't remember having to use them in the city, so DH would probably have to learn how to use them first. I'm going to pass along your other suggestions as well before she packs to leave.

Might as well put it here, too, the "What Breed or Gender" thread is pretty slow...

Four of the fourteen (Quinta, Uno, Quadro, and Tertia) (Secunda is behind the box), as I found them this morning:

Any input as to pullet/cockeral, with reasons so I can apply the analysis to the other ten.

Remember A A. Any word on yer house and when Ya want me to deliver this new coop/coops ??

Sorry CR! I talked to DH but didn't get a definitive answer. We are also dealing with the oldest DD. Seems she is tired of playing by our rules and wants to move out. Of course there is a young man involved who is a bad influence. We love her and don't want to see her get hurt! I know who has my back but it is still heart-wrenching all the same.

I been there done this with my daughter. It is very painful to watch them derail their lives. I don't really understand why my DD had to go through the phase she did. I just know that it did pass. Just remember that you have done your job, and that she has the right to be miserable. Just do your best to support her without contributing to the insanity. We remove all financial assistance when our DD hooked up to a guy twice her age that couldn't read or write. She met him at the Community College's tutoring program. It was so hard to watch a girl that had graduated from the CC at the age of 18 with an AA degree, give up all the advantages of graduating early. She didn't get her BS from the UofW until she was 26. She did grow out of it, and is living the life that she should. So you have much support in a difficult time.

It is so much better that the cancer has been located as early as it has. It is highly unlikely that you die from this. The worst part will be the treatments to take care of the known risk. You have a lot of people that love you and are pulling for you.
