I put 9 duck eggs in the incubator and they take 28 days to hatch. They should be ready by May 12th. Jeff , me and his brother Calvin are supposed to go to Indiana the 2nd weekend in May. I hate riding in the car. I be they will talk about trucks and hauling the whole way...Maybe I will catch up on sleep while we are gone.

Our potatoes are just starting to come up. I am hoping to plow and plant some corn and bush beans this weekend. Depends on the weather. I am hoping to get alot planted for a heavy canning season with any luck.

Hoping to can enough for us, Trisha and her husband, my mother and many some to give to friends. Should have enough green beans, corn, tomatoes, and potatoes for all. Sam wants to make more stewed tomatotes they did turn out wonderful.

Piles of peepers looking for a mom to snuggle with. My daughter called to say our sitting hen has hatched her eggs today to. We have 17 out of 20 that hatched...

Little wet blobs no one is being named Gracy. They fall all over the place but we could hear them peeping inside the egg before they started breaking threw
