Neighborhood Hike, Potluck, and Party

Today our local trail club was having a hike and potluck. There was also a trail ride early in the morning, but it was one of those times where my trailer decided it did not want to participate, and expressed this by shutting off all its electronics. I stared at it for at least 15 minutes, but coul[...]

More on Chickens

Even though Chick Days is approaching, I ordered chicks online. They will be arriving on June 8th. The wait is agony! I order my chicks from mypetchicken.com.

Almost Chick Days!

This bitter cold weather makes me think of one thing. It's almost Chick Days!! Chick Days is a period of time in late winter/early spring where Tractor Supply sells chicks. I love going there and checking them out. I wish I could take them all home because they are so darn cute. Our oldest chicken[...]
