Sounds you have a nice hobby going on. Something you enjoy. That is key! Critters come back at all? (giggle)

My daughter is coming home this weekend, she lives/works in LaCrosse. We plan to go to the farmers market in Wausau and putz around the area. Hopefully it isn't a total wash out. I also have the meal worms stocked up- my daughter tends to over feed the ducks to try to get them to "cuddle" with her. She can usually catch one and cuddle it against their will. I do have Terrel in the freezer yet if she really wants to cuddle with a duck. They are all molting so the yard looks like pillows blew up, they seem grumpy, very loud and look a bit rough. Sometimes I think when you live in the city for awhile you tend to forget the calm of the country. A lot of the times I find her just sitting outside enjoying the quiet and watching the ducks be ducks. Her fast paced life needs to slow down sometimes.

Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the nice weather. Keep those gardens growing!!!

ahhh your daughter could have drove just north to Holmen and right across festival foods a guy sits there selling sweet corn and could have taken some sweet corn north.

We didn't grow a garden this year, so I was looking to find a decent deal on several dozen so I could freeze some. We stopped at a self-serve stand while over in MN today. At $9 per dozen, I'll just buy the name-brand frozen corn in the store for way less than that!

Im going to 8 bucks dozen next year. With all the animal damage and hassel. I figured I could go work at walmart 20 hours a week part time for 4 or 5 months and make as much selling sweet corn. No worry if its going to rain, or get 6 inches and wash out, tractor breaking down, fix the planter, work on electric fence at 730 pm after selling sweet corn, run to town get another 25 gallons of gas doing planting and tilling.

Yah 8 bucks except senoirs get 50 cents ear limited either 6 ears or 1 dozen a day. Many senoirs dont buy alot anyway. Some of them buy 2 ears with quarters. Like they digging in their piggy bank to buy it.
