I didn't make a new year resolution last year but my goal was to exercise almost every day and I was able to stick to it and I'm very happy with the progress. It becomes a new lifestyle and hopes to carry this over to next year. I'm taking it one year at a time.… Continue reading Year In Review 2018
This was our first camping trip this year, the weather is cool during the day and cold at night. My dad didn't particular care for this lot since it sits on the hill, but Easter weekend was packed and we're fortunate to get any spot at all. I told him it's a good exercise, not… Continue reading Camping Weekend
The chicks are over 2 weeks old now, and last Sunday Bo delivered them to his mom. The photos below were taken at 2 day old, only 25 of the 41 eggs hatched survived. The bathroom/tub is not an ideal place to hatch and raise them, I have noticed that I had gotten sick the… Continue reading Incubator Chicks Update
Bo's mom gave him 41 eggs about 3 weeks ago to hatch since the last batch of incubator hatching chicks in September of last year was a success. Our bathroom became a place where we place the incubator. The temperature has to be a consistency of around 100 Fahrenheit, the eggs started hatching so Bo… Continue reading New Spring Chicks
It has been about 3 weeks since I took these photos of the quails. They live outside and have heating lamp to keep them warm at night. Ideally I think we need to live in a farm, I started looking last year but couldn't get Bo and Lee sold on the idea that living in… Continue reading Quails Calling
Lee made a rubber band teddy bear for me for Valentine's day. I have to say it's a labor of love, she spent hours working on this. It's amazing what small round rubber bands can turn into. She started making rubber band bracelet at the end of last year, and gave several bracelets to kids… Continue reading Lee’s Rubber Band Art
The photos are dark and gloomy, not exactly the Christmas photos that most people post at this time of the year. It was raining on Sunday, and we made our round delivering Christmas presents, and oddly I didn't take any picture of the presents. Grandma's garden looked gloomy, it was still drizzled when I was… Continue reading Visiting Grandma’s Chickens
I recall it was around Thanksgiving of 2006 when I signed up for this blog, I can't believe it has been 7 years ago and hope many more years ahead. Thanks all for reading and looking at my photos.
They have grown so fast, and almost time to go to their new home at Bo's mom's chicken farm. This one is learning how to fly. This little fellow is a mixed breed with a Feather Footed Bantam, there are feathers on his legs. The one on the right hand side is the youngest, and… Continue reading 7 Day Old Chicks
It has been a busy weekend for us, so far 16 chicks hatched and there might be a few more hatching tonight. The chicks are healthy, and probably thought that Lee is their mom. Lee helped chirping to encouraging them to hatch and at one point she said she gave birth to 5 chicks. I… Continue reading 1 Day Old Chicks
Bo has been trying to hatch his mom's chicken eggs by using the incubator and this is his first success. He didn't keep track of the number of days, and it takes about 19-21 days for the chicken eggs to hatch. The first egg hatched around 1:15 am last night, and I'm glad the second… Continue reading Incubator Chicks
We went hiking at Wilson Creek to see the closest waterfalls, the Harper Creek Falls. We didn't know the direction and saw a man and his 2 sons on our way up. His direction was simple, but it took us to a different journey. He said "when you come to a fork, take the trail… Continue reading Got Lost While Hiking to Harper Creek Falls
