End of June, early July

 Finally, a post!! Wow!

So we went to the optometrist, and these are the results we chose:

We got a flu. Quite late in the year. It was the only one we got all season, so we weren't complaining. Just very weird timing. A flu, in June??

 My hens and chicks flowered. Not very pretty. Wierd looking, actually.

 Peaceful playing...there was a whole story to go with it which I have LONG forgotten. oops.

 Chalk art. Evelyn's self portrait.

 Evelyn's moral suport.

 We had a patriotic moment. Singing the national anthem in a formal manner. I expected the queen to come up the stairs and visit after that. ;)

 Checking out what remains of our flock. 50% survived my neglect and the raccoon's night visit.

I still have moments of fright when I hear the sounds that remind me of the morning when I discovered the results of being careless.

Our rooster is still alive! We were very thankful to have some chickens left. And quite sad too. Heart breaking.
