Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

I think anyone else could have said that & it wouldn't have sounded as creepy.

creepy? creepy?

Where is the creepy?

Here little goat , goat!

creepy? creepy?

Where is the creepy?

You know I'm not picking on you, right? I only mess with you because I like you.
It wasn't so much the 'goat' that was creepy. I think it was the words 'tasty' & 'baby' in the same sentence.

She's going to send me a "test box" with different markings to see if it makes any difference with the post office, since we are only about 2 hours apart. Something fishy is going on.



keep us posted of course.



Congrats on the testing!

I made something similar for grow outs, but boy do they go nuts when you reach in from above. Or even walk over and look in. So I added a window down low. It's helped some, but I'm thinking of adding another window on one end.



I'll have to remember that.

Regarding a test box, I doubt it will make a difference. From what @ChickenCanoe says, & he's normally pretty accurate, all parcels are regularly placed on conveyor belts, possibly rollers, & dropped into hoppers on the other end. It would take someone who really cares for it to be otherwise.

Good morning, Pond Life.

Parents are on the way home... got the kid to sleep before they arrive! Whew!

I think I would have to make the rule that at Grandma's house, the only rules that apply are the ones that spontaneously spring into my head.

When it comes to my grandkids, 'rules be damned'.

it is just a very heavy spring shower

You actually get heat. .. so whatever shows up should melt quickly.

We still have snow, and do NOT get heat ...so very little melting. We have had a few little snows.. but really nothing. A few bits of the driveway show dirt.... kids are having to ride the snowmachine only on off road areas... can't get to church by snowmachine anymore since they have to cross a road that no longer has snow cover.

Nope. No heat (above freezing) for at least the next week. Our ground hasn't even begun to thaw yet.

At one point I was fascinated about farming with horses. I was a frequent visitor of the Rural Heratige website.... every once and a while I come across a video that reminds me of those days....

Here is a farmer farming his land with Percherons.... Its a long video but very pleasant to watch

I was driving through Amish country once, up around Lancaster, PA, and happened onto a farmer in a field, pulling a piece of equipment (don't know what anymore) behind at least a 6-horse hitch, maybe more, all side by side. They were at the end of the field, ready to turn & head back the way they'd come. I pulled off the road to watch as the inside horse turned in place and the rest walked in an ever-larger arc, depending on how far up the line they were. Imagine how well that team had to be trained! Quite a sight for someone accustomed to seeing tractors doing all the work.
