Fall in the Mountains
After an evening of watching our local high school team play ball in chilly winner when two weeks ago we were burning up lets us know fall is setting in. So much will change and God will give it all a rest to hopefully come alive again. What does fall mean to you.
P.S. Sorry there are still no photos; but, I promise their will be a blog overload once I finally get a new home computer (and stop using the work computer!)

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.
