New at Camp Bell

We just hatched 8 baby chicks! They are the cutest thing! I just love baby chicks, we had to help the last one out of the shell, but all is well and she is growing and catching up with the others.

We are trying to up our laying stock, so hope they are all pullets! What an egg-citing time!

Today is a joyful day too, because we seen the first hummingbird of the season, a little later than usual, but not as late as some years. It is always a good sign that spring is really almost here. Even though there is snow in the forecast for Saturday! Oh well, this is the Upper Peninsula of Michigan!

Take care and.....
remember....

Our One Foot Snow Storm!

Well, winter is back with a vengeance! We had over a foot of snow night before last! The temperature dipped down to minus 15 degrees! I think that is the lowest all winter. I hear that Lake Superior is nearly frozen across. That does not happen very often. I have been here for 11 years and I don't think it has happened more than once since I been here.

Movin' Snow!
Our One Foot Snow Storm!



Just to think that Daylight Savings tims starts on March 8th! But the good news is that Easter and Spring are not far behind! Just have to get Lake Superior UNfrozen, and get some of this snow melted and I maybe can see my daffodils by mid-May sometime. But it is the U.P. so we should be use to this kind of winter.

Until next time, here is a Bible verse that I read everyday to remind me that I am not alone and that God is with me all the time.

~ Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. Joshua 1:9 ~
God Bless YOU and keep you!!
