    Funny Business

    So today I found out the largest construction of mankind is a greenhouse effort in Spain. Seen from space its many plastic roofs reflect light and its a marker for space travel. A green house(s) That just kills me.

    If You Could Grow Only One Crop This Season, What Would It Be?

    Poppies are always popular. Do we have to make a living at this or can it be more useful like ginger? The trifoliate is cool.

    Bison Snot. Yes -its a thing.

    Hard to believe, I know. But really if the humans that live in the expensive gated communities like Nantucket has were lucid enough to not have 3x the average amount of cocaine in their sewage water than the rest of the USA then I would say the Buffalo had a chance to lead us into a better...

    Dishwasher for larger quantity of veg washing?

    Does anybody do this? It was just in a top 10 type list for unusual things a dishwasher was good for. Cold cycle, no soap, no heat of course.

    I bought a powered wheelbarrow cart thing.

    No, what happens is you have more energy when you get to your project and at that point one of two things happens. One is you bounce through the project and find it possible to start another. Two your project gets magically bigger. If you touch a wheelbarrow they cover you with the faery dust...

    I bought a powered wheelbarrow cart thing.

    Yes. I simply watched a youtube video. Over. And Over. And Over. But a secret I found is the new electronics setup is shown on the aircraft towing machine assembly video. I watched it today and recognized the two controller boxes shown vs the older version video they have out on the wheelbarrow...

    I bought a powered wheelbarrow cart thing.

    Oh yeah. I have been moving bags uphill to store near my sheds. If I was smart I would have built my sheds near the mailbox but no, they are uphill behind the house line. It is strange that wheelbarrows stood on their nose all lean too far forward not back. They should stand vertical for...

    I bought a powered wheelbarrow cart thing.

    Gotta get it out of the den first. The thing has 10 cubic feet trays but mine has the 6. Flat trays are available or put what you want on it. The tranny has a drain plug and my John Deere lawn mower does not. They say it will not get hot enough to impact the lubricity but its nice to have...

    I bought a powered wheelbarrow cart thing.

    Thats my bro! And the problem with terraces is they have to be filled, or walls built which have bases that need footings filled. All hauled uphill of course, between trees and such.

    Lost Garden Implements

    My wife has lost her clippers again. The tiller may find them. They are heavy steel and not light like mine so I will get her a pair like mine after some good rusting time goes by. I think I have repaired hers twice over the last 25 or so years.

    I bought a powered wheelbarrow cart thing.

    I think this will end up being a favorite yard implement especially since the house sits on a hill.

    TEG Prayer Chain

    You know there is no way that my Lord gave his Son in sin and to his personal choice as a man to sacrifice himself for the sake of love. It is in my mind the blanket of support that is only able to be thrown over people through the purity of the love of God. It is mind numbing what so many...
