Is it too late to try again? <br /><br />Had to chuckle at the thought of DH hauling you and the Gravely out of the mud. Never a camera handy when ya need it. <br /><br />Lordy that casserole sounds delish!Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17822528453563683772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679123700391465393.post-86254853236718072932011-04-29T07:11:29.491-05:002011-04-29T07:11:29.491-05:00Yesterday was the first day hubby could mow our ya...Yesterday was the first day hubby could mow our yard. There were some areas that were still spongy but with the push mower he managed. The grsss in some areas was over 6 inches tall. My iris still aren't blooming. This is the third year since we've moved. Hope they're just late because of all the cold wet weather we've had. <br /><br />Sorry the setting hens didn't give you some cute little chicks. My mom always had a couple of banties she'd stick eggs under in the spring. <br /><br />Hope you have a safe and blessed weekend.Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13687590785527530194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679123700391465393.post-10615184803395056412011-04-29T06:05:40.883-05:002011-04-29T06:05:40.883-05:00I can't believe you can even walk in the yard ...I can't believe you can even walk in the yard as much rain as we've had. Yesterday was the first time the sun had come out in two weeks and it sure was nice. The lake is so muddy it looks like the Mississippi River! We did have water over our road a couple days in the low spots, luckily we have a "back" way along Cloverdale Road we can go when this happens. In 6 years this is only the second time so that tells you how bad the flooding was. We had 3 deaths in our area that were flood related, people driving where they shouldn't. Had to chuckle reading about your setting hen! We had a old banty that wanted to set nonstop. She would hole up in the chicken house for weeks and give blistering looks to the other hens if they came remotely near her! I would have to do the same thing, throw her off. She never laid an egg, she'd just claim someone elses and set on them. That urge to be mother is great! Have a good weekend...Joy Tiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04183952085695405635noreply@blogger.com
