Chickens and Fish

Today the chickens arrived. The phone rang at 7 am.  "Bird's Creek calling. Your chickens are ready."


A quick breakfast and we were on our way. The arrival of new birds is a big occasion up here and we didn't want to be late.

So here are our "girls" all huddled under the coop. So far they are very timid and not very adventuresome. They prefer to stay close together and under the shelter. Maybe tomorrow they will be more relaxed. We did get our first egg today.

Mary's garden is in full production. All the plants seem happy but we think they need more sunshine. Another project for next winter ................ cut more trees.

While I was taking Ben home, Mary went down to the lake to fish and this little small mouth bass will be supper tonight. As I type he is cooking over the fire along with some sweet potatoes, yummy!


Thanks for stopping by and we will chat tomorrow.
