Today's Wall Street Journal

I'm finding that I'm a lazy blogger, with lots of notes to add to my blog, and hopefully, I will get them logged here one day soon. BUT, I'm an excellent "pinner" on Pinterest. Pinning is like shorthand to me (again the lazy way out). Anyway, earlier today when I was "pinning", I opened a new tab and started searching for decorated bee hives on Google. Well, one thing lead to another and I ended up on the Williams-Sonoma website looking at their "Agrarian line". That sounds pretty fancy-smancy, doesn't it? Along with bees, I would like to have chickens someday, so I pinned a very cute $1300 chicken coop. A few hours later, when I finally settled in to read today's newspaper, I saw the exact chicken coop on the front page of the Wall Street Journal. http://on.wsj.com/XTsNlu Don't be mislead, I'm not a high-end consumer who subscribes to the WSJ for financial advise. Maybe I will elaborate in another post about how I ended up subscribing to the WSJ. Now, back on subject. Today's WSJ had a very nice article about the "modern homesteader" craze. I don't know about all that, but I'm happy to see that other folks are getting interested in beekeeping. Very cool! Here's a picture of the coop:
