I Gotcher Weekend Job for Ya Right Here - Saturday 1/5/2008


It's 40 degrees in Acton. Do you know where your son is?

There are always a couple of high school students hanging out in the semi-trailers out back of Country Club feed store over on Sierra Highway. What kind of trouble are they getting up to?

You'll find out when you buy a 50 pound bag of horse chow or some bales of hay. You show your receipt to one of these guys and they load what you ordered in the back of your vehicle.

They were reattaching the tarp to this stack when we picked up 50 pounds of birdseed. We also get 50 pound bags of chicken scratch which only costs $8.50 and, as it turns out, attracts a wider variety of birds than just the seed.

Doesn't this look like FUN?

I didn't get a photo of him, but we now have a regular non-ground squirrel in our backyard. Perhaps drawn by the chicken scratch? Hydra speculates that he came from the forest. I dunno. But he sounded like a Labrador retriever when he ran across our roof a couple of time this weekend.
