Now now Steve, just imagine what the guineas say about us as we scurry around, making a lot of irritating noise.
Pappy my guineas are not a problem in the garden but I do have problems with rats, ground hogs or rabbits eating the first tomatoes closest to the ground. Once the tomatoes get over about a foot off the ground then I have no teeth marks in them. The guineas are the best potato beetle picking you have ever seen. Clark doesn't have to dust his potatoes at all when there are guineas around. They are great fly catchers too.

Green Acres is the place for me, farm living is the life for me. Who wants to be Mr. Haney? I worked with a fella who wanted to know how a guineas skin looked like that. Yeah we all had a good laugh at that city slicker( also a UNC fan ,some think that had more to do with it).

Morning All!! Sure does feel like summer this morning. Got 4 of the guineas out this morning but also two chickens. The guineas acted like they had never been outside in their lives much less yesterday. Preeeety dumb criters.
Hope everybody is doing something fun today. Enjoy!!!

So It's OK if I call your guineas dumb, I just shouldn't call them noisy??? It's probably good they are cerebrally challenged, they don't know to be afraid to go after snakes either.

Mornin' all. Pappy's been out greasin' the wheels o' commerce a little. I hope the AC's workin' on my lawn mower today. It weren't workin' last time so I had to mow fast to get a breeze goin'. It's already hotter'n a pan o' bacon biscuits out yonder.
I vote fer Jane to take the Mr Haney role, ff12. She done already 'bout sold me a gin-yoo-wine organic insect elimination system. Some folks calls 'em guinea hens.

Morning All!! Farmer Haney reporting in on this gorgeous Sunday morning. All is well on Green Acres. All the guineas went out with minimum fuss to do what ever it is gueneas do all day. I am off with hubby and grandson to report soccer scores at JCPark for the morning. Mostly I read the paper and enjoy the weather while hubby does the ham radio stuff.
Have a great day.

Mornin' all. Have fun at the soccer game, Jane.
Does ham radio go good on a biscuit? I b'lieve Mr Mike uses a bacon radio. I b'lieve he calls it a CB, short for chewy bacon. I'm just guessin' but it sounds right.

WHERE IS MR. MIKE???? It's been nearly 2 weeks!!!
I'll give him Chewy Bacon, Crispy Bacon, Chocolate-covered Bacon, Cranberry Bacon, Caramel Bacon..... well, you get the picture!!! I wish he'd come on back to the "farm." Hey, he could be Mr. Drucker, and we'd all come to his store for supplies!!! Hmmmmm, maybe he's waiting there for us now.....
Oh, yeah! GOOD MORNING TO EVERYONE!! Looks like another hot one!!

Too cool, Pappy! Maybe we ought to start a "bacon" forum!! I found this on that link.... Seems appropriate, what with the wedding season and June brides approachin' --
Just to prove that everything goes better with bacon, we give you the baconized version of Corinthians 13:4-8:
Bacon is patient, bacon is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Bacon does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Bacon never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
So, go forth and enjoy the wedding season. And yes, you may kiss the bacon.

| Hee hee. I saw that weddin' bacon story, Macca. How can a union wrapped in bacon ever fail? Impossible!

| There was also the story about how the Canadians should quit usin' precious bacon fer bear bait an' use somethin' we don't care about, like Paris Hilton.
