    not a way to end a week

    Tears and hugs. This has been a terrible week all round. Attended the funeral of a 21 year old who hung himself. Never had to witness such devastating grief of every person there. His Mom, father and brother... words fail.

    What's With The Bad Manners?

    Confused, is the land his? If so then your chicken trespassed first. Fence would be a good idea to protect chickens.

    Hello from zone 6a Canada

    Hello from zone 6a Canada

    I spend the end of march all the way through to somewhere in April prodding the earth to see just how frozen it is. I have seedlings in the basement under home made lights with compact fluorescent bulbs. I do this because our electricity is nasty expensive. I wish I could can the sun!
