What is this sorcery? Several of them ran out of the pen when I dumped these clippings... bunch of Ninny's...lol

Oh, it doesn't eat us, we eat it.

I've started getting a nice darker brown egg again. I was wondering if Maybelline had started laying again.

Yep, that's her in the back... they have almost 4' of nesting space, yet they all want to lay in the same spot...

My Easter eggs!

Such a beautiful basket of eggs!

Planted 8 of my tomatoes today. The extra are going into pots, until I get back home. I'll probably give them to any friends that might want them.

The glass domes are a piece of history. They are light covers from Priest Rapids Dam & Wanapum Dam. Hubs was allowed to bring them home when they changed them out for more modern lights. We still have several that are complete. One day I might try to fix them up and sell them. Some people spend a lot of money for things like that.

Until then, cute mini greenhouses

Well, this girl was over on the neighbors property! The grass definitely isn't greener over there!
Not the best picture, but you get the idea!

What happened after she came back!

Hopefully this keeps her contained.

This one seems to be just as determined as her sister was.

I went out and she was on the other side again. The wing clipping didn't work. I blocked the spot where I think she's getting out, it's the same place as the picture. If she gets out tomorrow, I'm going to lock them all in again until I get back home. Then I'll see what I can figure out. I just don't have time right now. We have too much to get done before we leave on Sunday.
