Thanksgiving


They were predicting several days of rain so I got this out to plant. Now is the best time  to plant spring flowers. Many will sprout and grow over the winter and bloom next spring. 

I spread it around the big hoop coop after spraying on some biological innoculants and trace minerals. 


I spent Thanksgiving Fay with family and got home and did chores just in time for the rain to start. Due to the weather I canceled my usual Friday deliveries and stayed home. I’m glad I did. It rain all night and most of the day. The wind blew off row covers and even pulled the hoops out of the ground. 


I added a stake and tied one set of hoops down. I added a couple of water filled jugs tied to the hoops to help hold them down. I made deeper holes and pushed them farther into the ground. I hope that helps. 

There has been a little runoff but not any violent flooding. 

The ducks are enjoying the weather. The chickens not so much. 


And I’ve been cozied up to the stove a lot. I have been working on 100 days of Appreciation. Today is Day 4 and today I really appreciate my wood stove.
