Pickin' has been a little slim. I think because of the weather. The other night I missed a good pick when I decided to drop Michael off at scouts and then swing back by after. I hate when that happens. Lesson learned...strike while the iron is hot.
Picked up this old ladder last summer and have been using it for the chickens to learn to climb on. They never seemed interested so we hung it on the fence. Mark has been collecting watering cans. And I collect anything that is galvanized. We combined the two. Once the weather is nicer we will plant something that vines in the minnow bucket so it can wrap around everything. The watering cans will serve two purposes...decoration and water gathering when it rains. I plan to use the water that is caught on the flowers on the fence in that area.
I get more comments on the boots that anything I this shot. Great way to clean them after being on the farm. I have decided that all of the galvanized buckets and tubs will be planted this year with herbs and flowers that will benefit the chickens. They will look and smell great and save me a little money in the long run! I think it is a win-win all around.
This will be the only kind of rooster I will ever have...one that doesn't make any noise.

I can imagine that you are cracking up...thinking 'are these people crazy!' You won't be the first to think that. Let us know what you thought was a really cool idea...and maybe share some of your own ideas...where do you think we come up with all this cool stuff?
