• We have snow!

  And it was icy and slippery on the roads this morning.  I was about 3/4 the way to work and I encountered a line of stopped cars.  Turns out the bridge over the highway had iced and there was an accident on the bridge.  It would have taken a fair bit of backtracking to get around, and I figured the accident would be sorted out quickly, so I waited.  Of course, my wait took 40 minutes and I was late for work. <sigh>  But I called to let them know and I just worked a bit later in the afternoon.

  It is snowing a bit now too.  And we learned that our chickens are afraid of snow.  They won't even come out of the coop!  Very. Very. Silly. <shakes head>

  And speaking of chickens, dh snapped this picture of them the other day.

  

  That was the day dh finished up the nesting box too.

  

  

  To put in this spot on the coop.

  

  Mind you, I don't have a picture of it installed, but let me assure you, it is done. And I am sure the chickens are appreciative!
