Cindlady That is a NICE building. I love it. Oh how lucky you were to find a house that already had a chicken coop !!!!! All our property had for an extra building was a single car garage with a tiny chicken coop attached. We don't use the coop for coop since we put up horse fence. Plus it is to far away and the run area is filled with tons of weeds and old chicken wire etc. AND SNAKES live around there. We store our hay in the little garage and often the snakes will be hanging out on the warm hay !!!! Yuk !!! HELP GUINEAS I NEED HELP !!!
If I were to do it all over again I would have looked for an old farm with tons of outbuildings !!!! So far we've built 2 horse shelters (Very nice heavy duty to HELP Prevent injuries)1 donkey shelter(which is now used for the ducks) 2 chicken coops, one greenhouse. One huge Pole building could have housed it all except of course the greenhouse. We got free windows from the neighbor & off Craigs list for the Greenhouse. We copied the neighbors design for the greenhouse !!! SssshhhhhhHHHHH don't tell anybody !!!
Glad to hear that Duke is doing better. It is so hard when they get old. We tend to forget that they get old like the rest of us, why does it have to be so quick. Do you have central air? Reason I ask is cause I have arthritis and with the air on (set at 71) I am aching all over. Plus my neck (arthritis) is killing me, pain up my jaw and everything. Nipping on wine, aspirin nothing seems to help. So last night I turned the air up to 75 and wrapped a towel around my neck. Feels better today. (And I made sure ET was asleep before I wrapped the towel, so he didn't get any ideas)
Maybe some warm compresses on his ears would help? Can't hurt. Sending good vibes to Duke
DKV That is going to look very nice !!! Good choice of plants.
Hope you didn't throw out all of the hostas you dug up ????
I love Hostas. I have several different kinds but they aren't big enough to divide yet. I had even more but they didn't survive the move up here from Racine. Would have helped if I would haved planted them from the pots they were in. The olde types seem to be alot hardier and I have grown them in pots and they overwinter well in the pots. Not the more expensive ones.
Just picked up two new ones at the Walmart in Rhinelander's clearance section. One is called "striptease" and the other one "Earth Angel".
