2011 - Day Two Hundred Twenty Two; Wednesday...

I can guarantee you that the guy INSIDE the tractor feels that 12 MPH is faster than all the cars behind him think it is. INSIDE the tractor there is a lot of bounce and jiggle, so it feels like you are flying down the road. BUT, if you are behind him, it feels like you are driving 12 Miles Per Hour. There is really not much you can do about it but pass him on a curve AND a double yellow line. OH, and by the way, when did civilization quit paying attention to yellow lines in the middle of the road. Out here (on the edge of nowhere) no one pays attention to yellow lines, I don't care how many of them there are. Almost EVERYONE will pass anyone on a double yellow line. I'm just saying...

Kind of a cool one today. The high temperature was only 104 degrees, so we expect there must have been a front hat passed through or something. Every day in the seven day forecast is over 100 degrees, nothing below 104 though. AND NO RAIN.

The littlest chicks will be eight weeks old tomorrow, and they are getting kind of pushy in their old age. This weekend will be the big test of their grown-upness and their instincts. They will be let loose with the big girls, and they will be allowed to 'roam free' for the first time. Who knows, maybe on Saturday afternoon we will have several fewer chicks than we have right now. We shall see.

You know I am getting a little over-scheduled when I show up for an appointment a day early. At least I did not show up a day late! That would have been much worse. SO, we will do a repeat of that tomorrow afternoon just to see how the meeting turns out.

Deeds, Actions, Changes, TRACTOR, Kindnesses, Whirled Peas, FUN!
