for chick coop

Our second snowfall of the winter blanketed our farm in such beauty, I couldn't stop taking photos! After being totally freaked out by the snow, our first-year chickens and ducks seem okay with it, and those who have lived through snow before took it all in stride.

Although the snow prevented me from tackling a few outdoor projects I have in mind, it did afford me time indoors to write a few magazine articles and work on my second book. Yup, you heard it here first - I'm writing another book!
