Jessica,
You are not that far from me.
I don't know Covington well, but I'm on the Kent East Hill plateau, all the way to the Renton end, just off the Benson Hwy, on Benson Hill.
I only know Covington a bit- I go up Kent Kangley to the Walmart business district area occasionally. Often in Kent East Hill shopping.

You would be considered SE King County.
Or loosely the Eastside, of Lake Washington. Not to be confused with the eastside of the mountains.
Or the also loosely the South End.

If details could be worked out I might be interested in a meet up. I'm very centrally located so could do just about anythuing from Everett to Tacoma, and if it works out maybe provide a ride to others. I know a few don't drive.

The first time I ever saw a Wolf spider; I was in Ballard. It crawled up the back of a chair onto my shoulder. I noticed something black out of the corner of my eye, but didn't look for a few minutes. When I did I screamed like a banshee. I caught it and took it to an exterminator. Telling the guy I had Tartantulas. He eventually stopped laughing and clued me in. That darn house was infested with huge Wolf Spiders. I have since made peace with spiders. But I am glad I find very few inside. I give credit to the cats.

Nice!
Really like the Celtic knot ring too.

In my opinion: Easters are:
Bellevue, Renton, Enumclaw, Puyallup, Monroe, Duvall and Snohomish
Eastsiders are: Wenatchee, Ellensburg, Cle Elum, Entiat...etc= the dry side.
I fall into that category, but I'm not sure about the term Easter. Makes me feel like I should have long ears and be decorated in pastel colors!

Does anyone without small children happen to want/need a 5 month old laying black australorp? I will sell Dartha (yup, we love Star Wars here!) for $20. She just attacked Jeanine without provocation.

Geeze, that pullet is indeed from the Dark Side! My Australorp is a total sweetheart and a good layer, so maybe you just got a bad Sith chicken.

CL...I hate being on crutches and I hope you heal up quickly!

CR...glad the drugs are helping and hope they find out how to patch you up quick too!
 
Did you get the blue ones or the black ones, or one of each? They're really nice looking so far..

One of each. I like them, they add a nice variety to my chickens.

Hey, about that south side meet up. How about a central area, one that has a decent eatery and meet up for a late lunch/early dinner one Sat or Sun.
It doesn't matter to me since I'm retired so any day would be good.
CR, what about that rest on US 12 westbound? (I've been there, but can't remember the name. Exit 68 from I 5 right?)
Anyplace would do actually.

Oh this has me very excited, I can't wait!!

All I know is I love my chickens... they will eat any spider even the very large ones that look like they could choke the chicken!

Jeanine was just sitting in her little backyard chair and all the chickens gathered around and Dartha jumped up and bit her undereye. I would also trade her for any laying hen under a year old. I really need to keep as many laying hens as we have but we can't keep her. Just when I thought she was super sweet and nice she shows her true colors again.

That doesnt really sound like shes mean. It sounds like she just saw her eyelashes and went for it. Thats happened here a few times.

Yeah I guess I just don't know how to proceed. She did the same to BOTH of Williams eyes a couple months ago too...he has the longest lashes I've ever seen!
