I don't think it is too difficult to get a screw from Menards..

10 years is a long time nowadays, Jim. Now you're lucky if you get all the materials that should be included, & I'd be suprised if they even gave you one extra screw.

Deb, how in the heck do you get those shots????????????? That must surely be one sweet camera you own. Your pics are breathtaking.

Jim!!!!! You don't want to be back on BYC's offenders list again, do ya?

CC thanks for the compliment. The camera is awesome, has a setting for close ups,within 6", but I still have to crawl around on the ground a lot and shoot about 100 pics or so to get some that turn out as well as those... those little drops are very difficult to get in focus! I got so lucky getting such great color out of them today!

Tiki, great shot of Ralphie... and I LOVE the way you "painted it", nice job!

Well the trims all painted, the phone line is now hooked up and now I can grab my camera and go play! Yay!!

Awesome job, nevertheless. Quite the professional looking job.
And if you think taking pictures of dew drops is challenging, wait until you get your chickens.

You'll also come to learn why she might have felt the need to paint the background too.

Jim you are such a card !!!

I just rehomed two Ameruacana Roosters !! There going to be living in MI !!! Thanks Tom !!!

TOM I forgot to tell ya. Those roosters were hatched by a third grade class in Antigo WI. I brought them the eggs to hatch. So they have been socialized !!! I guess the whole school took turns coming to the classroom to check out the Chicks !!! Guess I'm not the only one that has a knack for hatching out Roosters !! Those third graders did a good job too !!!

Sure am glad I found a good home for the roos !! Sounds like they are going to have it made !! Lots of girls to call their own !!!

I think she was referrring to your 2" x 11" cuccumber !!

I'm sitting down here in Shawno at Mc D's. heading to TSC. Dear Hubby told me when I left for my road trip that he needs Hydraulic fluid for the tractor !!!

He was just at FF yesterday. So I thought good excuse to check out TSC. If they're higher then FF then I have to go to Antigo on the way home !!

Woman emailed me from Pound this Am. She has two peacocks and one peahen. $40 each $60 for pair. Don't know how much for all three !! Don't know how old either !! Of course she hasn't emailed me back but will probably hear from her when I pull up in the driveway !

Called the Amish who I'm getting my cart from. It is here someplace in WI on a truck. Might get it this week or next. He doesn't know when, the guy just makes his rounds dropping the shipments off ! I said would be nice if I can get it on my birthday, Wednesday !!! I don't give a rats donkey about my birthday but thought it might get it here quicker !!!

Still looking for a pony harness. Contemplating getting a nylon one so I don't have ANOTHER leather one to keep clean and oiled !!

Well, better get to TSC and back home. Thank goodness we have leftovers for supper. I won't feel like cooking tonight !!! Btw what's for supper Bigz ???

Not sure I will be making it to Racine for the Weekend yet. So much to still get done at home, plus I hate leaving my animals !! BUT if I get enough requests for Roosters I will come down !!!!!

The two Roosters - who have been named "Bert & Ernie" are doing fine. They seem to be a bit nervous when I introduced them to the flock of girls and are acting a bit "shy." They sure are friendly! Bert (the bigger of the two) comes right up to me and seems to love being petted around the neck.

So your birthday is Wednesday? MINE TOO! How about that? Aug 24 babies! I knew there was something about you I liked! LOL


Thanks again - I really appreciate it (and I'm sure the girls are diggin'

:

: having two strapping young lads hangin' out!)

Afternoon All.... it sure was a perfect weather day today, eh!

Thanks for the information on feeding horses Carol... it was great to learn something new today. Guess I'm a cheap date in comparison. The 12ers are the good german stuff that you need a opener for. Suzie hates the stuff, and that makes it all mine!

Glad you could help tommy out FT! Easy supper tonight. 1/2 lb venzun burgers stuffed with fresh garden onions, grilled on the weber and served on large home made buns with flax seeds toasted on the grill just right. Home made pickles served on the side with fresh tomatoes and a slab of sharp cheddar. One of those prettty much fills ya up.

Getting pullet eggs TO but not the Bucks yet. They are 21 weeks, and prolly within the next 3 weeks they should start. You would love my lawn...it's long enough to bale....

Glad the boys lost last night on SNF!

Forgot to say....thanks for the GREAT pics.

Terri O: I had a lavender orp like that once with the slipped tendon or whatever it wwas. I separated him fron the rest and put a buddy in with him. I didn't have the heart to kill him so I was going to wait till my husband got home (in about a week) and have him do it, but somehow he started walking fine again.
