    Enjoying the Spring Sunshine

    yesterday was a beautiful day here too - sunny, light breeze, 58F. alas, we had already scheduled our day and had to run out to do errands and shopping. still it was nice to be able to be out and not be frozen or rained on or blown away. today will be about the same temperature but we have a...

    Scammers

    how often you need to change a RO water filter membrane cartridge depends a lot upon the quality of the water you have as an input and if there is any sort of pre-filter or activated charcoal filter involved. all of these costs are a part of using them. the recommended changing interval is...

    Baymule’s Farm

    mebbe next time cut off the seedheads when chopping and bag just those for disposal... also now that they are chopped you can probably mow them regularly before they get tall again. if you have a setting on your riding mower that lets you drop the deck easy chop them as close to the ground as...

    Gone to the Dogs

    i've known someone who has. our neighbor's relatives had a large indoor coral (50x200 ft) that they had events at. i never attended but i did visit them at times as a kid and hang out. [ complete aside :) it was about 3 miles to walk plus it was near the large clay pit that was filled in...

    Coffee

    regional accents are very interesting and the 'er' sound is a part of one of them that has always struck me as odd. i mean the northeastern accent where I DE UH is often heard more often as I DEER.

    Ducks ALIVE in 2025!

    good to hear you're not perched on clay like we are (with a high water table enough time of the year that i wouldn't want to put fruit trees in). :)

    Gone to the Dogs

    i understand that everyone wants to defend the animals and put the blame elsewhere, but we recently had this discussion already and it is true that some animals are not good natured any more than some people. it takes all types and all types seem to exist. as for the event that got me tangled...

    Ducks ALIVE in 2025!

    just don't forget that you'll be watering it during any prolonged dry or hot spells. you want some roots able to get down deeper for those times. is your subsoil going to let roots get down in it easily enough that the peach tree can do that?

    Gone to the Dogs

    the chance of that is so remote i would consider it more likely she'd be hit by an asteroid... anyone a fool enough to try to give us a dog would deserve to get bitten (by Mom or me or both at this point - i'm getting old, i don't have much to lose... :) ). note, i do not ever want a dog - i...
