As I wander about my blog I realize the “Wicked Walk” section is piling up rather quickly so I figured I better start dating the darn things. So I did. Wednesday September 3rd was cloudy, cool and rather lovely. I walked about 8:30 a.m. Here is what I saw. Wild Fruit. I think the first…
Texas is getting pretty dusty which translates to I got pretty dusty Wednesday August 27th. Since I can feel my shorts getting a wee bit snug I walked a little farther than normal. And I even remembered to take a bottle of water along. Here is what I saw. I was more than pleased to…
I have a confession to make. Wednesday August 20th I walked. To my chicken pen. And took over 300 pictures of my chickens while attempting to covert them into Southern Baptists. Not sure if it worked….more on that Friday! And since I figured walking to my chicken pen didn’t qualify as “A Walk”, much as…
August in Texas is almost always horrid, hot and unbearably sweaty. So of course, this is the week Addie insisted on walking with me. Therefore Wednesday, August 6th 2014 was a short jaunt to the train trestle and back. Here is what I saw. A cute human in shorts, a Hello Kitty! shirt toting a turkey…
Hi! Hello there! It is FRIDAY people! Cheer up! My chicken and I wish you an awesome weekend! xoxoxoxoxo ( I know this looks a lot like the photo in my ‘Meet the Flock’ post but is in fact, brand new. Apparently this is Chicken’s favorite new pose…) 😉
Attention everyone! I would like to place an order in advance for next years summer to be exactly like this years summer. We had our third cool front of July this week and another one is on the way to usher in August. This combined with abundant rainfall-perfect summer. My walk July 30th was a…
In spite of the forecast predicting a killer heat wave Wednesday July 23rd, the early morning hours were quite pleasant. I took a different route this week and headed east instead of west as I left my driveway. I saw TWO humans who both spoke to me which means I had to speak back. I…
Thanks to God, Jesus, Mother Nature and Mark Scrito (our weatherman) Wednesday July 16th was gloriously cool! Upper 60’s and sunny with a slight breeze, thank merciful heavens! I didn’t even break a sweat until I was 2/3 of the way home from my 2.5 mile excursion. Here is what I saw. The railroad tracks…
Wednesday July 9th was much like Wednesday July 2nd. Hot, humid and mosquito plagued. So I waited until fairly late in the day to venture out. Here is what I saw. Apparently the chickens wanted to join me on my walk. Or they thought my camera bag contained scratch. After a brief, mad dash in…
Ameraucanas have a special place in my heart. Of the first 20-something chicks I bought over 3 years ago there are only 3 left and they are all Ameraucanas. Some folks like to call them ‘Easter-Eggers’ for the blue and green tinted eggs they lay. I have found they are excellent layers and obviously hardy…
