Posted - Jan 13 2009 : 12:07:59 AM Count me in as an outlaw! But my neighbors don't mind, since I share eggs with them. :) Things are moving slowly in the changing the ordinace movement here. No one will even respond to my queries!! So, I take their silence as approval and carry on. lol I am copying this to send to our county commissioners. That should stir them up.
