I'm way behind in reading friend's blogs and twitter conversations, and my personal hygiene ain't too great either (ahem), but a boatload of stuff has been accomplished around the property:
- Hops, passionfruit, gojis, and additional herbs have been planted.
- Peppermint, aloe, and bay laurel trees have been potted.
- Front garden-bed rock "outline" has been re-established.
- A third of the front-yard "pasture" has been reseeded - another third tomorrow.
- Broody Goose has been booted from the laying kennel - she was getting way too skinny and unkempt - and the opening blocked. No worries, there's other kennels, just blocked her favorite.
- Rigged the chicken coop so the other goose can't lay in it (and thus keeping the chickens out).
- Cleaned up the property from the last wind storm.
- And last, but not least: moved the week-old chicks from the starter kennel into bigger digs. Good word, we're gonna have to build a bigger coop just to house them in a few weeks!
I love your blog. I just bought 25=2 baby chics and they are eating me out of house and home The farm store would not sell me less than 25, so I mixed them up for varity. I enjoy your photos, too. What kind of camra do you use?

@meb - glad you're enjoying the blog! I use a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28. Someday I'll read the owners manual and learn to use all the cool options, but for now I love the point-and-click ease of use.
