Last night's Movie Time poses...

*****

Got up at the usual time...

it's 69 degrees and misting rain...

The door is open for 

Bible Study Time...

Bucky is crowing, 

the frog is croaking,

and there is a distant train whistle...

Perfect!

Looked out the window

and the three Littles,

who have been "broody"

in the nest box

(yes one nestbox, all three)

for weeks have

come out to wait for breakfast...

Heading out to the

soggy Barnyard...

we needed rain, for sure,

but not all at once!! :-)

If you remember,

we did have four of these

young Buckeye girls

but one disappeared many weeks ago...

probably a hawk but we

found no feathers...

a clean grab, I guess.

These are the ones that should

be laying most of the eggs

because they are young...

but they seem to lay very few

if any!

Anna...

And Elsa...

Pup Pile Patrol...

Heading to Oak Ridge

for our Yearly Wellness Exam...

Yea, we checked out AOK...

we are just getting old,

but there is no cure for that...

well, actually Heaven is the cure :-)

When we first left...

On our way home...

Pouting Parlor...

It started raining and

the chickens ran for cover...

We also went by the DMV

and I renewed my license...

*****

Look at Baby's udder!

It isn't hard or warm.

She doesn't seem bothered except

that it is floppy and must be heavy...

I think I may have to get the vet out

to really look at it.

She was here a couple months ago

for their shots but didn't seem to

think it was anything but

precocious udder...

I may have to try to milk her...

Lovely...

Out to the Barnyard...

Had a few moments of sun shine

and Lucy took the time to sunbathe...

Six eggs today...

Tonight we will watch

"The Rock"...

made in 1996 with

Sean Connery, Nicolas Cage and Ed Harris,

 Michael Biehn, William Forsythe, 

David Morse, and John Spence...

one of our favorites!

Good Night Everyone...

 Quiet Time in Bible Study...

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; 

He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.”

Psalms 23:1-3 NKJV

“And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you 

and will be in you. I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.”

John 14:16-18 NKJV

“The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom, And before honor is humility.”

Proverbs 15:33 NKJV

“So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the Lord your God, For He is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and of great kindness; 

And He relents from doing harm.”

Joel 2:13 NKJV

🐝

“Eternal Thanks”

We wake today because they fell,

Their stories in our hearts still dwell.

They gave their lives so we could be,

A nation strong, a people free.

With folded flags and solemn grace,

We honor them in sacred space.

We light the candles, say their names,

A torch of love, a burning flame.

So with our hands upon our chest,

We thank them all—our nation’s best.

Good Morning...

Bible Study Time...

Murphy's Dent...

Out to the Barnyard...

not raining 

but still VERY wet!!!

Reclining at table :-)

These two sure enjoy Roses!

Paula is going to put the

"Horse Crossing"

sign over Dandy's grave...

we will plant something all over that area

eventually...

We decided to go eat lunch

at the Mexican Restaurant...

checked on the pups

and you know where they were :-)

Went to Habenero's in Clinton...

SO good!!

Found a Black Snake in the driveway 

coming up...

I think he might have been run over...

Rob and Molly had some visitors today...

we moved him off the driveway...

he didn't act normal...

He is so beautiful...

hope he isn't hurt bad.

I didn't see any injuries but

they could all be internal...

Sparkly Day...

Took the berries out

to the critters :-)

Had to give the chickens some of their own...

Baby and Fiona get their big heads in that bowl

and there is no room left for the chickens :-)

I looked out the door and guess what I saw...

Fiona and Baby were IN the backyard!

I had not closed the back gate

very well and they snuck in...

here Fiona is looking thru the door...

I guess she saw us, but we didn't yet see her :-)

This one is a little harder to make out

but they are grazing in front of the Koi Pond :-)

They were no trouble at all to

lead out of the yard and into their house...

just enticed them with Ritz Crackers :-)

Ended up with six eggs today...

Time for showers and Jammies

and some Pack Time

on the Couch...

*****

Tonight we will watch

"Robin Hood"...

made in 1991 with

Kevin Costner as Robin Hood, 

Morgan Freeman as Azeem, 

Christian Slater as Will Scarlett, 

Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio as Marian 

and Alan Rickman as the Sheriff of Nottingham...

It didn't get good reviews... Costner is mediocre...

but wow, Rickman carried the whole thing...

I sure miss him!!!

Good Night Everyone...

Hope your Memorial Day was sweet!
