Once you have your photos digitally retouched, they will never fade away again - if they do, you just print or have a film developer print a new copy! One advantage to digital retouching is that your precious photos need never leave your possession or even leave your house, if you have a scanner!

When Ben and I first got our draft mules Kate and Annie, we decided to also add five hens and one rooster to our "barnyard scene." The flock consisted of a buff orpington hen "Buffy", three black jersey giant hens "The Jersey Girls," a Brahma hen "Dharma," and a dark-brown leghorn rooster chick Rudy. They came from a local 4-H leader. Since then we have increased our flock to 20 chickens and we and our neighbors enjoy fresh eggs and the sight of beautiful chickens roaming our yard and barn. One of my favorite books about raising chickens is:
