Wow, @Shades-of-Oregon I had forgotten about Blue Chip stamps. I still remember the location of the green stamp store :D.

I am learning how last year's crops off 2 LV s surpassed what came off a half dozen Anise Hyssop plants. No, I have already had 2 more LV harvests over the recent 4 weeks and still haven't gotten to the big pruning for Winter of everything green. The LVs are little shrubs. The AH are...

Chilly in the house this morning and I have turned the kitchen oven on to warm ;). It's a seasonal 44f (7C) outdoors but only warmed to a high of 61f (16C) yesterday. We had a nice drive through the mid-day. This area is rich in lakes, tucked into forested hills and mountains. We visited about...

I had a dream this morning AND it was very similar to this:

Ack! It doesn't look so easy ... Steve, who hasn't had that long of hair since his late 20's. And, Mom was a hair dresser, so what did i have to worry about ;)
