I think guineas are such cool birds. Most of my expended family on my father's side raised them and I so enjoyed the sound of them when we would go and visit. There was usually a herd of them near the mailbox when we turned into their place and they'd go scooting, making their cute sounds.

Someday, I'd like to have guineas. Thought we would be living where we could have some chickens and such when we retire, but now hubby says he likes the idea of living in a suburb of a large city where there are lots of cool golf courses. Guess I'll spend retirement in a golf cart with him rather than making soap and raising guineas. Perhaps he'll change his mind.

He's good at planning something and then changing courses and going in an entirely different direction. (He's talked about chickens and maybe a couple of cows recently. This is what I mean.) I just hang on for the ride.
