[Ag-eq] Egg color

[Laurie Porter]

Our friends cabin is way up in the north woods in wisconsin about a 6 hour 
drive straight north. there is usually quite a bit of snow on the ground 
when we go to tab the maple trees and make syrup. we especially enjoy going 
up there as we are so far from civilization, we have no electricity or gas. 
we boil the syrup down over a wood fire and finish it off in a copper 
kettle. We cook our meals on a wood stove and have a big fireplace that 
keeps us warm. The cabinwas built in the 1930s and at the time they built a 
huge outhouse that is a 3 holer. We pump water right out of the deep 
artisian well and I think it's the best tasting water in the world.  since 
there is nothing out there but treestrees and more trees, the boys had to 
come up with some sort of a landmark so I can find mmy way out therre  when 
nature calls trudging through knee deep snow. the cut down a large iron wood 
tree and lay a path of logs  so my cain has some point of reference.

I've never had a guide dog before. I own a retired yellow lab  named leonard 
who just had his 14th birthday and the poor guy has a little trouble with 
his bag legs and he had some difficulty handling walking around out there in 
deep snow, but he really loves it out there from and he sure is very helpful 
out there so much so that I don't have to depend on any sighted person have 
to lead me around

P.s. what this story has to do with egg colors I have no idea, your guess is 
as good as mine lol
