The last few days have been cold with rain off and on. Heather has not been feeling well so we have stayed in most of the time. She is better now, and we made it to the grocery store today, but didn't see anything of interest to photograph.
But we do have a beautiful Orpington rooster, and I know Cathy will appreciate the photos of him below.
Heather names most of her chickens and turkeys, and all of the Orpingtons are named for weather events. This one is Thunder.
I'm posting a picture of the garden plot as it stands now - pretty bleak! And I'll post more pictures as we clean up the area and get everything planted.
Mike has stacks of logs around the yard, aging before he cuts them into logs for firewood. Here are a couple.
Once Mike has cut the logs into wood stove-size pieces, I will help him split them (using the log splitter) and stack them in the wood bins. The log splitter sits in front of the wood bins in the picture below. It's covered with the blue tarp.
More to come!
Thunder is a handsome bird. Is he a blue? All our Orps are buffs and we only keep the girls. They are so sweet and lovable and can be trained to come when called. The boys are just mean.
