Resting & Packing

I have been hit hard by illness. I feel weak & woozy. Packing up while healing from pneumonia is difficult at best. I have been spending a lot of time in this chair under the pomegranate tree while Merry frolics in the berry patches. I really wish she would wait until they are ripe, but alas, we will not be here when the raspberries ripen, so she might as well enjoy the hunt now. Any thoughts on raising chickens with a Beagle? Hoping to raise some lady birds, but heard Beagles think they are snacks...
