Wisconsin "Cheeseheads"

As always, love the pics BL4! A Yellowstone trip is on my bucket list.

Judge, this was our first breakfast on the farm. We'd meant to go to one for the last few years but didn't, surely had no excuse to not go to Natzke's farm. Great family, great neighbors to have. I think the last one they hosted was in the early 2000's. There was a board with a bunch of photos and history of their farm (5 generations now); in one of the aerial shots we could see how our property looked in the early 80's - nothing but cropland. Incredible how much the trees grew in less than 30 years! Some of them are 40' tall now. And it looks like the creek was not here back then either?

No clues on this turkey? The yellow is a Royal Palm, the other is obviously not but came from an egg marked as such. Could it be a Bourbon Red? I had those eggs too but thought that none developed.

Oop, almost forgot: the 2013 Raw Milk bill has just been introduced. Right now we are just asking reps to co-sponsor it: the Legislative Reference Bureau (LRB) Number is : 2542/1 – Allowing the Sale of Raw Milk. Later it will get assigned to a committee and then voted on. Please consider putting in a call to your state Assembly person and state Senate rep. This is the third bill in as many years - 3rd time's a charm?

Deli I actually thought I'd bring some handwarmers for the eggs, or Riga herself in a cage. Give her the eggs immediately.

So I guess Terri needs to decide when we're coming if it's around hay time? Come early for visit time? 4pm? 4:30? 5:00? (although 5pm is not nearly long enough time for visiting!!!)

Robin, do you have a car you can drive? I was gonna ask once and I forgot. I'd share Hershey eggs with Deli. If CC was gonna show, she could bring a FEW lav eggs or Stella eggs?

Oh... Epsom salts for yeast. Put it in the waterer? How much? The silkie is still hanging in there but looks awful. I think I'm gonna have to rub its whole BODY with vagisil !

I vote we use you for a dolly!! Can I please please have a few Hershey eggs?

In one sentence you want to use me as a dolly, and in the next you want Hershey eggs? Hmmmm????????????

Depending on the time of the meetup & if it is raining or not, I could probably come tomorrow. Yes, Heather, I can bring some lav eggs too, and yes, I have a car. I only have 6 Hershey eggs, though, just so you know.

I thought about the hay time too after I posted it...it is coming after 5PM cause he has to work. So I am thinking that it will be here about 6 or so. I cant believe you guys will come and help me do this! You all are the BEST!

I will throw something in the crockpot so we can eat too!
Gotta head to my gardening job...later--TErriOeverthankfulformyBYCfriends
