They get dried corn and nuts that we feed the ducks.

lifelong dream for me. I love LOVE being around the water. I now live on my farm with a 3-4 acre pond as my front yard. That is the best and closest I will ever get. If I had my druthers I would be on some kind of small live aboard boat just cruising the Caribbean. Stuck in Kansas makes for little chance of that!

Anyway, I feed what I can around here. I have to be careful though, the raccoons need no help at this time however. Wow are they fat!

Good for you. I bet it gives you a wonderful feeling. Ducks are so nice to have around.

My grandparents had a houseboat in Texas. I loved visiting them there. It was tiny and they did not live in it permanently but we got to go when we visited.

Ice on a dock sounds scary!! Be careful!
