SUMMER ARRIVES

The weather has been fantastic the past week.

Temperatures in the high 70's.

Even walking the dogs at 8am most mornings,

it's hot and sticky outside,

Crossing the wheat fields and in to the corn field.

SICK CHICK

Poor old Burka the chicken me quite ill, 

with a case of "flystrike."

An open wound had maggots it it.

Not nice at all, she couldn't walk,

and just sat there with no 

appetite or will to live.

Thanks to a good clean up and some

antiseptic spray, she is back on the 

up and almost normal again.
