Our wether Barney went to live on another homestead when both my husband and I had some medical issues. I gave up my hens then too.
no chance of planting here for a couple of months at least...we have snow drifts still in the 2ft+ range. Moving south (sw LA) is appealing some days but when I lived there years ago I missed having 4 seasons....no lilacs, no peonies....but I'd gain camellias, crape myrtles....hard decision
