    Coronavirus Concern Up

    Thanks, FJ. I have not really commented a lot on this thread lately because I am a mix of everybody on this issue I think. I have a really weird blended perspective on all of it. I also can't stand the confrontation over it. Last Friday, Kentucky implemented a mandatory mask rule in public...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Battling with the raccoons. My corn is thigh high and they are already trying to topple it. Some damage is done already. I set a live trap last night. They somehow stole all of the bait, and threw the trap. :mad:

    I don't yet, but I am not slaughtering for another year. I want to get a good sized animal finished out. I'll sell the rest directly or through the market. I am excited for it.
