the Nekkid Advenger !!


Kevin called me the nekkid avenger this morning when the dog started barking at 7 am. He finally went down stairs to see what the commotion was about and then I heard the chickens squawking again. I jumped out of bed and looked out the window to see a fox ( edited to add that we figured out it was a Fisher) running around with one of my white chickens in his mouth. I streaked downs stairs (literally) and was yelling fox fox fox. Kevin didn't hear me since he was in the other room. I opened the back door and there was the fox (Fisher) trying to get out of our chicken pen. The fence is 6 feet tall and he was jumping up the sides (no chicken in his mouth now) and he finally made it up the fence and out. All the time Kevin is laughing at me. He said we got us a nekkid avenger. He said I thought you were going to run out side like that lol. I almost did.
well the damn fox (Fisher) didn't get away with any of the chickens but he killed one of our Buff Orpingtons and our White Silky roster. @##@$ Fox !!! So now we are setting a trap and this predator will be gone soon I hope. I also need to find another silky roster some time soon. Poor girls will be so upset with out their man and I will miss his crowing. Has anyone ever used predator pee ? I'm wondering how it works.

first anniversary wonderful weekend !

Kevin told me he had been saving for our anniversary which I forgot about. He had been saving because when he gets his pay check, he signs it and then hands it to me so he's been putting aside his coffee money and what ever is left after a weekend excursion. I melted !! He is so sweet !! We had Joey that weekend so we decided to go and ride on the cog railway but when we got there we found it was full of leaf peepers and there were no rides left for the day. Joey had asked to go to Maine So off we went to find a place in Maine. Kevin said he wanted to take me to a place on the beach where we could watch the water from the hotel room at night and listen to the waves. After we cruised around enjoying the sights, we found a beautiful hotel on the water in Booth Bay Harbor. We had a wonderful dinner of seafood yummies and enjoyed the night listening to the waves. The next day we went to the neat Maritime Museum, checked out all the great stuff in the Museum and then took a wonderful cruise in the harbor checking out the seals and bald eagles. We saw three Bald Eagles at their nesting site which was awesome to see and the seals were really neat too since I didn't even know their were seals in the east. What a fabulous weekend with my two favorite men. Kevin is always surprising me with his kindness and love. It's so nice to see there are still knights in shining armor out there for us women to find. Joey loved the trip and was very tired after all the sight seeing.

Don't Vote !!

I was never so interested in a election as I am now and I'm enjoying learning all about it with someone who enjoys explaining all the ins and out of politics. Even Joey gets into it and asks us who were voting for and why. Anyway, I wanted to pass this video on and hope you watch it.
