| I just signed up and am looking forward to meeting new friends! I am a stay at home wife with a retired hubby. We moved to a 6 acre old farm last May a year ago and are fixing it up. We painted the barn last year and turned the carport into a garage and this Sept we replaced the siding and got it painted this weekend. We still have more to do on the house. We have 7 laying hens, 1 rooster, 6 baby chicks and 3 bee hives. We are taking classes on raising bees. And soon to taking a class on chickens to learn the ins and out of taking care of them. We are loving this life after living in town for a number of years. |

Welcome Linda, you are at the right place to get to know like minded women. I have learned a lot from them - they have a wealth of knowledge and all are willing to share with us that ask for help.

Hi Linda, Welcome don't you just love Washington. We ( my hubby & our son ) move here from Calif. about 9 year ago and we are very happy with the move. I has started to rain again here in Vancouver today and I am glad. I had enough of our summer heat & humidity. I am looking forward to all the fall... making apple pie and pumpkin cookies. I am also getting ready sell my art at all the local holiday bazaar in November.

Welcome to the Connection, Linda! Hope you stay awhile! We started our country life many years ago with a few chickens and bees. That was a lovely experience. Don't forget to check with you county Extension Service for info too.
