Grant Wood?




Lot's of Eggs


Which egg is real?
Kellie bought a stunt double to fool the chickens into using the nesting box. I was skeptical but it worked. Now I don't know which is which.

New project

Not that we don't have enough unfinished projects, so we started a new one. We knocked down the wall between Hazels old room and the room next to it. The plan is to enlarge Hazels old room by about six feet or so and then put in a new wall so that we can have closet space in the entryway and a spot for a stacking washer and dryer. Shouldn't take more than a year at the rate we've been going but at least we have a vision.

Frost

We had our first frost a few nights ago which put us a bit ahead of schedule in the garden. We picked some, ate some,left some and added a space heater to others. So far,so good.
