All over the property and in the house I have to fight. Save the ponies from the pastures--don't let them on it too soon in the Spring in order to avoid grass founder. Save the pastures from the ponies--don't let them graze down too much, except for the Inner Sanctum, which won't see them until...

Yesterday DD"s came over and we mowed the 1 acre "yard" and the South Pasture. Looking Very good! I took my big loppers out and cut back the pine tree limbs making it possible to drive underneath 3 of the south fencing pine trees. My loppers can cut 1"+ pine limbs. Youngest DD made a last...

OF COURSE!! :lol:

When I was working on a teaching certificate some 20 years ago I took a weather class. One of our assignments was to plot the weather prediction 5 days out, then 4 days out, until day OF (same source.) I have thought about this many times. I have concluded that 5 days out is generally correct...

I must have known this, bc I never add salt to anything purposefully, and you won't find me salting my food with a shaker. DD's like to call this type of talk "virtue signaling," but it is just my evolution, and taste preference. I DO know that I can season my broths with lots of flavors from...

Nope! It's for Tegan.

If you have ever used 3 month Preen, you know that it kills any plant under 3 inches tall. It's just a help for keeping weeds away from your roots, especially if it's a new planting and your vegetable/flower roots aren't very deep. This just kills plants for almost a whole season. Some of us...

Back to gardening... I need to get all of the strawberries in their strawberry pot--many have red flowers on them, but straight water won't cut it for long. Don't think the upcoming frosts should bother them much. Recovering from a minor sniffly cold, so nothing done yesterday or the previous...
