Oprah’s Got Something to Talk About
Oprah has been coming into the chicken coop cackling for the past few days…something was up…over the weekend she laid her first egg! Oprah came in “second” in our egg laying contest. Here she is in the chicken coop quite proud of her accomplishment!
And yes, you can see there are curtains and framed family photos (baby chicks) in the coop.
I found the egg in the coop when I zoomed home on a break from Kim Nixon’s Rug Hooking Retreat at RT Lodge. So I thought you might like to see it on a background of one of the hooked rugs designed by Kim. To see more of her creative work, visit www.undertherug.com
Here is the group of fun and crazy artists at the retreat, who also learned more about chickens than they wanted to know.

Bob & I were watching the news tonight and we heard a disturbing story. Apparently, there is a glut of fresh eggs coming out of Tenn (Maryville to be specific). Egg prices all over the country are plummetting. On our local front, Vermont chickens are in therapy they are so distressed! Do you know anything about this?????????
We always look forward to your pictures.
