Rather than tie up stuff here I'm posting on the CS Thread later about some stuff for those interested.

Gonna be super lazy - when's Chickenstock? I have a gift and all the stuff for the raffles and sign-in book still. Oh yeah, my buck Percy passed so no kids till I figure that out. Am looking for some feeder pigs also.

Not really. Starting in Oct we had that heavy wet snow storm that dropped trees like grass being cut. That said with all the things going on they waited till I got back and last week I started in. Massive willows 36" at the base landed in one of my fields and what a mes they made. My wife...

I did not see that, about Chickenstock. I'll make a note and check out the thread.

Went back though some posts. Anyone heard from Dreamz lately? Okay, I gotta go let the ducks out.

Hey all my old friends. Been awhile as usual. At least since Randy's passing. Well since last Oct, between Cindy and I, we have been in Maine with my Dad in Hospice in his house. We missed all the holidays together and a few other things. For the times we were out there together my sons...

Hello all. My usual long between posts. And Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and all that jazz. Yep, heavy snow yesterday and 50's by the end of the week again. Lots of work here on the farm. Planning ahead on a new coop/sugar shack combo since I only burn for a few weeks to make sugar...

I just got a reply on FB that all of his pets have been adopted and are being taken care of. The fellow mentioned they believe it was a heart attack.

Okay, I just read on FB he passed. Nova posted it. I just talked to him on FB it seems about cars. Super bummed, BUT, what about his animals? Does anyone know the status of his dog and chickens and such? Rose? Anyone? I'm on the westside as a few know but if needed I can foster. Not a...

Gotta say we are loaded with blueberries this year, Plus the blackberries, raspberries, and blackcaps are loaded. Only picking backcaps right now. Even without the usual rain everything seems to be doing good. Must be the water table. I know the weeds are doing good:)

First CS I've missed in so many years of going. Drove from Maine to Michigan yesterday straight through. Pics please!

We had it last year 2022. You were MIA.

When is Chickenstock? I still have all the goodies...book, raffle tickets, etc.

We have a large bird (feathered feet farmyard hen) that was born with a distorted beak. Cindy trims it every now and then so it can eat. It grows back. I'm no expert but maybe that beak will grow back. Sort of like a fingernail?

Sorry for not getting back sooner. No we are all set. A Doctor down the road just retired and has a nice farm. He had cows when his kids were younger. He has all the required things to do this for his grand children. He is taking all the extras I have.

Got my 12 year badge. Funny how we find this forum even after previous years on the farm. Been a great place even though I don't stay connected often. I always know where to come back to. Re-homing some full grown (sis & bro born 2017) today to a nice retired couple just down the street with...

Very sad about Opa. He shared so much info with me and I even built his roll away egg box from his plans. I'll try and dig up some nice photos I took of him.

I have to (note: have to) drive to Manistique next week to work at the Thompson State Fish Hatchery. I need to tie some flies for any free time I get. Not really looking forward to this work trip. The UP can be nasty right about now. That's my experience anyway from living in the Soo...

Yep. 90 a few days ago and 30 and snow blizzards yesterday. Cindy flew to Boston to see the grands and her family in Maine so she's missing this frozen mess, lol. I just hope it does not hurt all the blooms that happened during the false summer.

I never "paid" someone but I do own 15 acres in Maine and there was a farmhouse and attached barn. My BIL and I tore it down into the old foundation (deep cellar) and covered it with dirt. I kept many of the old wide pine boards and hand hewn beams. This was an old house...1800's. I have...
