We once chose a cat at a shelter because it was sitting on a pig. I bet the chickens toes feel good on its back, which is why it allows it. Isn’t nature fascinating?
That is the funniest thing! Pocahontas really must not mind it (and I love the nickname Poky) or she would have reacted fast and hard to remove the hen! She did that so gently…
Pokey’s back must be so nice and toasty warm! She’s a good little girl to let the chickens hang out on her like that. Few more days and I think you’re gonna win Suzanne…Hurray!
This lil donkey is jdarling!! I have wanted on (or2) for years. I would be interested in a blog from you on how to buy/feed/care for a miniture donkey. If one already exists, please point me to it for info. PS. love the corn and bread recipes too. Can’t wait to try them. I love to cook, but work a stressful office job and loose the ‘punch’ when I get home. :[
too cute! I will have to show Little N when he gets off the bus! I will show him how to check the site so that he can see your blog even when I am in pittsburgh. We might not be going to sleep in the same state, but at least we can have the same interesting things to view and email back and forth. Your blog is part of the glue that is going to keep us connected as a family!
I do hope that you get that job for Same’!I will probably have to check that out too. It won’t be so hard to stay in a good mood if I can at least read about warm buttery bread and jam.

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die."Keep reading our story....
If you decide to use the scythe be sure that it is SHARP! It can be sharpened with a file, like you would a jacknife.
Scything is not hard, it just takes practice. Easier than clipping or mowing tall... - brookdale on Barn Tour - Storage Side
Are barns in West Virginia built "looser" than more northern states? It seems like the the slats (siding?) on your barn have more space between them than the ones up north. I imagine it is because of ... - lavenderblue on Barn Tour - Storage Side

OK Suzanne, You've bought your own farm, visited a hardware store, made butter and cheese, make soap from scratch, and so much more. Now follow the directions, and get moving on that tractor! It lo... - D1BeachBum on 4-H Project

Things are budding and about to bloom here in the north GA mountains. Not good. We've got buds on the apple, peach and cherry trees. If we have a freeze now, and it probably WILL freeze before April, ... - Darlene in North GA on Daffodils in February
OK, OK, they lost me with Chapter 2 "Recognizing the different types of ROPs". Do they have a kindegarten version? I hope like modern manuals that have a English, French, Spanish, etc. version inclu... - joykenn on 4-H Project
It looks as if that tractor is coming to good use for you. It's a good thing you have men to help out and who know how to use it. Otherwise, you'd be digging this time next year to find the pipe!

I think it's great; a booklet that doesn't assume you know anything about tractors. Maybe when you're done with book A you could be some advanced 4Her's service project: teaching you how to use the tr... - whaledancer on 4-H Project
For once, a problem with an easier solution than you feared! And not another huge expense! :woof: Although the mystery may have you scratching your head for years, at least the problem is solved.
