The Hen and Rooster Game

At two a.m. Monday morning I helped (not too much) unload 8,900 plus hens and roosters in to a church members chicken house. It took four hours to unload the chickens, that is two tractor trailer loads of chickens in that little amount of time. It was an art form watching the skilled men grab the chickens two at a time in each hand and guide each of them to their elevated nesting boxes where water and feed awaited the animals. The reason it was so early was because chickens die in the heat very quickly, the early cool hour prevented this. It was a great experience and I hope you may have the opportunity to see where your food comes from.

What's Growin' Up in Your Neck of the Woods?

Tell us what is growing in your garden or anything else around you, include animals and projects too. Just put your story in the ramblings below.

~~We have cucumbers and squash already coming out of the garden and the corn has just started producing tassels, yeah!

Revival of Benefits

What are Summers known for in the south: VBS (Vacation Bible School), revivals, and baptisms. Have you ever thought of the benefits of being a christian? We sometimes think we have a heaven to gain and a hell to loose when we have repented, but their are so many other benefits of being a christian. I am a proud southern baptist and I have gained so many internal benefits, a peace that can only God can give. I know this is a different topic than what I have posted before, it is because I am happy to be renewed. God has given us the fruits and flowers I usually post about and why ignore that fact? Let your summers be about learning the benefits of God and his graces.
