How the Hen House Turns: Turkey and Bobbi Goose … A Hint of Wildness
How the Hen House TurnsHere’s another exploration of what it means to be wild. Take Turkey (Little Bear), for example. She’s now about 11 years old, raised by two adoptive loving mothers—both White Silkie hens in our small community of geese, ducks, bird-sitting dogs, and a human providing semi-reliable afternoon treats of apple cores and honeydew melon rinds.
I wouldn’t call her wild, except when she trapped and nearly killed a marauding crow, and when she decides she doesn’t Read More

Skincare ColumnOne of the most exciting ingredients recently introduced into advanced clinical skin care products for home use is epidermal growth factor, or EGF.
This substance has been shown to stimulate the growth of new skin cells, making products containing EGF an excellent addition to an anti-aging home care regimen. The daily use of EGF encourages aging skin to function more like young skin by stimulating increased cell turnover to thicken and strengthen the skin and speed healing when injury does occur.

Solo Traveler: Tourist vs. Traveler
Solo Traveler: Tourist vs. Traveler“The traveler sees what he sees; the tourist sees what he has come to see.” – Gilbert K. Chesterton

He described how many places he’d been and how much information he had acquired in very short periods of time.
His description sounded like he spent a lot of money Read More

How the Hen House TurnsJust a moment to honor one tough, honorable, bird. He came to visit every day for a while, sometimes slept on top of the Hen House or high up in the Ponderosas that inhabit our back yard.
