Spring projects

Spring is the time for projects, and we have projects a-plenty! First up was refurbishing the old coop. B., our son with the heart of a farmer, has been begging for chickens for two years, and this is the year we finally followed through on our promises. He has been a tender caretaker, and lovingly grown them this far.

#1 rule:  measure twice, cut once!

L. mixing concrete...

David laying a new floor...

B. putting finishing touches on the new gate...

All that for these cute little critters!

Voila!  The "pollination partner!"

Here's my "pollination partner!"  Happy 24 yrs, honey!
