....trying to keep to line breeding not in breeding...it's very hard with a handful of each breed... 🤪

Works for me! I've used less convincing "reasons" for purchases. :lol:


We have that storm entering. It's major overcast, rain from drizzle to more...off & on. Bulk of heavy stuff arrives late day until before daylight. OK, I have to work, so went out and convinced the goats they would NOT melt in rain. Actually, eat in it or go hungry, it ain't bad out!! They are eating. LOL I'm off to work!

I'm sitting in my kitchen waiting out a tornado warning. The radartrack shows its path running somewhere between my chicken feeder and their waterer.
We used to do Atom Bomb drills when I was in elementary school. They had us file out in the hall, sit with our little backs against the wall, knees up, arms across our knees and head down. I suspect it was so we could kiss our A$$ goodbye.

I read your post and a vivid mental picture of little children in the school hallway came to mind.

Hope this thing misses you. We watch the minute by minute tornado broadcasts here too. Do you run for it? Get in a small windowless room? Since we are on satellite TV, it always goes off right before we find out if we are going to get hit or not. I expect you to check back in in a few minutes!

Threat passed. Not enough wind to blow the last hangers on leaves off the trees. Really dark and raining now. But more coming. Watch on til midnight.
PS. Hundreds of fresh leaves and open blooms on the pear tree. Would post a picture but a little nasty out there to be doing photography.

Glad you are ok. My pear tree is still bare. Here’s a flower for you!

As I recall, we were to hide under our desks for those drills. Yeah if the bomb was close there wouldn't be any A$$ to kiss goodby, but maybe the desk would keep the ceiling from falling on your head if the blast was farther out.
