A happy birthday

Spent my 40th birthday morning at the Columbia Farmers Market. We did even better than last weekend, even though it rained the whole time. I'm starting to get a complex, they are calling for rain next Saturday, too! We have added a couple of anchors to the big greenhouse this morning since they are calling for high winds. I do believe if the wind caught it just right, it would roll clear over our house, taking everything in it's path out with it. Ethan had a cooler with some crawfish in it in the greenhouse and a raccoon came in there and ate them. :( He was pretty sad. My favorite chicken, Aggie, is broody already, so we're going to let her hatch some chicks. We've lost 2 roosters and 2 hens to roaming dogs here lately so we have room for more. That's the pain of having open range chickens: they get to eat as much grass and bugs as they like, which produces very healthy and delicious eggs, but they're at the mercy of varmints. But the roosters sure do their best to protect their ladies! Well, I have to get off here and practice the accompaniment songs for church tonight. Drop a comment or come see me at the market, I love the encouragement!
