It’s Raining……..

It’s raining, it’s pouring…..the Silkies are mourning!  Their feathers are drenched, what a dreadful pinch, and they won’t be dry in the morning! Bless her heart, and we are supposed to get around 3 inches tomorrow. Thank goodness for a warm, dry home and a covered coop! Happy Friday all!

Wicked Walk 11/12/2014

After a month of traveling, illness and rain I finally got to walk in some really beautiful weather.  The arctic blast blown down south, courtesy of Alaska, had recently arrived dropping the daytime temp to about 45 degrees but the sun was still shining AND I had my sister with me again for company.

Lone Nut

Ever feel like you are the lone nut on the crazy path of life? No? I guess it’s just me.  I’m totally okay with being the lone nut. Until a squirrel comes along. Then again, it’s Monday and we are all nuts. Have a great week fellow nuts! 🙂 (and I am calling you all…

Wicked Walk 10/29/2014

Stress makes me ill therefore Wednesday October the 29th I was fairly feeble with the strength of a over-cooked noodle.  It made me really mad too because this was the absolute most beautiful day of the year.  Mid 60’s, partly cloudy, slight breeze, trees beginning to change colors and I couldn’t make it out of…
