Tell your own Tale
We had some excitement here yesterday, the actual story of which I am using for this week's Farm Side. However, if you would like, this is your chance to write your own version of the tale, right here in the comment section. Please have at it!
***Disclaimer-no farmers or livestock were harmed in the filming of this wild adventure on the back and side and front (etc.) lawn.
So we have to wait for Farmside to come out to find out what all the wire and blue flagging is about? (Not to mention a couple of folks leaning on shovels like they were DOT workers at a highway construction site. ;-) )
O.k. so you have developed the first 6 foot tall chickens and need an 8 foot electric fence to keep them in and the two girls with the shovels are there to keep the beasts at bay till you get them into the enclosure..;-))
I like the extra terrestrial idea. Think of all the money yu could make to rebuild the farm and farm buildings showing these amazing creatures to the gulable and excitement crazy public. You could even let Scott put them on ehxhibit for a while at Sanford Farms. People would flock to see these amazing creatures. Perhaps you could teach them to talk and put them on the radio. I would not advise TV pecause then they would becom old hat and no one would come to see them anymore and you would still have to feed and clothe them and take care of them and they would become another burden to you. although maybe you could claim them on your income tax and that might be a plus. Love you. Mom
Linda, I really thought about letting them out to graze in it when we were done with it, but it was pretty high. I was afraid they would scoot right under. lol
Cathy, a vivid imagination is a fine thing indeed. one need never be bored. lol

Looks like an area for the new pony to me!

Ok. Ok. I got it.
A spaceship from the planet Jury-rig landed in your pasture.
Our fearless farm gals grabbed a roll of electric wire to surround 'em til the UFO investigatory-regulatory team shows up.
It may not be legal to let extra-terrestrials on your land and you may be a lot of trouble with the Feds.
(How'd I do?)

Is this some mysterious rural thing that urban people have never heard of?
Joated, ah, but look closer...they are leaning on sorting sticks.....
Lisa, I gave serious consideration to using it for a pony area after we were done with it
Ed, I like the way you think! Imagine the drumsticks!
Cathy, outstanding in your field! Um, and a much better story than what actually happened. lol
Mom, excellent thinking! I can see it all now....maybe I can hire you to count the money for us. lol Love you too!
Oh, a whole new pony area!! It just must be!!

My only accolade in grade school came from my first grade teacher, Mrs. Clark. (Old bitty)
She wrote on my grade card:
"Cathy has a vivid imagination."
Yep. I was imagining getting out of her classroom ASAP. :-D
