Turkey, turkey, TURKEY!

Sometime a family can have too many turkeys.

In this video I tell of the time we accidentally got hundreds of turkey chicks. It was all because my dad didn’t want to see them destroyed when the sender and receiver of the live chicks wouldn’t take them at the airport. As a surprise, Dad brought them home. Wow, that sure was an interesting summer.

Dad worked at United Airlines and this was one of most exciting things he ever brought home–it’s a good thing he never caught the monkey that got loose in the rafters of the building.

I’ve never raised turkeys since. From this experience I’ve found them to be extremely stupid birds.

Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm.

Happy Halloween

A fifty-word story for you from me this Halloween.

This is your treat for today.

I hope your Halloween is filled with many treats and no tricks.

Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm.

Full of energy

It was my grandson, Harrison, who was full of energy. Not me.

Watching him playing actually tired me out.

I also visited with his dad and mom and uncle and aunt in Menasha.

It turned out to be a lovely day to spend with family.

Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm.

Art project today at Swanstone Gardens

Here’s a very short video of me working on my rain chain today.

Rebecca was working right next to me in the class led by David Calhoon.

Two other classmates with Susan and Rebecca with finished rainchains

Our next project will be the short, decorative rain chains, but that may have to wait until next spring.

Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm.
