Over at the Robin Siegismund Farm, Belle’s wait has ended; the eggs have hatched baby chicks. This has created a new problem for Belle. Now she is locked out of the chicken house until the chicks are bigger. Robin has been working on the same little people’s blankets for a week or more. Spring brings more outside work.

Tom and Beverly Pelkey think they surely must have everything repaired this week the furnace and lawnmower and log splitter and tractor all get some work done to them. They were thankful it wasn’t them that need repair. Tom found  some mushrooms which he shared with the neighbors.
