RE: Hi I'm A Newbie with a ??

Worked with our neighbors when I was young.  Of course one morning when Dad
was trying to sleep in and the rooster went off a bit too early, he ended up
being dinner for a neighbor having a rough time down the street.  (That was
back when stores sold baby chicks and bunnies around Easter.)

Blessings,
Bonnie (SW OH - zone 5)
