The chickens are doing well. They have been eating most of the scraps that I bring them in the morning. They seem to enjoy the hot weather. Today we (My Dad, Molly, and I) are going to lay some bricks for a friend of ours. It will be hard work but we are well paid with doughnuts and pop. I enjoy working with my family, it's pretty fun all around. It is nice and sunny over here! Molly is taking some swim lessons and so am I. I am taking a "Junior Lifeguard" class that is really grueling. Yesterday I had to swim fourteen laps or (28 lengths) I have the day off today, other than laying bricks.
