one year i was living with someone who had a plate of corn chips and cheese every night. i gained 15lbs... the most i ever weighed. it took me a few years to get back to better. weight is sneaking back up there now with Mom making too many goodies and me being too stressed so i'm eating a...

bean genetics are much more simpler than apple, but i still appreciate both of them very highly. :) this area of MI used to have a lot more apple tree farms than it has now, but they are still around. at one time i was going to put in some apple trees out back but the deer population is so...

i love watching the sledding and the luge but i know i'd kill myself doing any of them, also why i don't downhill ski. i'd surely splat myself or run off a cliff.

very funny that one of the beans i sent you looks like a smaller version of LF and has come about independently... can't be sure as i can't see the eyes of each to compare. but still funny. :)

i suppose Carson and Buford don't get along?

but dogs don't have private parts!

having been doing this myself for over 20yrs on heavy clay soil, some added sand will help, but also some organic materials put on top to let the worms work on it and do the mixing for you, it also helps with the drainage with their burrows drilling holes. the problem with all of it though is...

it might still be ok, give it some water (if it is dried out) and see if it comes back when the weather warms up. :)

nature already invented an anti-grabbity machine - it's called a porcupine...

it's a welcome bump to the snowpacks in several areas out there. :) i watch the levels fairly regularly through the season because so many depend upon them and i have relatives out that way and it gives us something to chatter about. the Colorado River Basin is the one that is the most...

i got more of my room here cleaned up - i needed to dust under my perch here and around it too. whenever i dust after the fall bean shelling season i tend to find all sorts of beans hiding under there. :) i still hate dusting and this is the hardest part of the job. i thought that perhaps i...

many more years and adventures! :)

i am concerned about diversity in crops and how they may be bred. more important to me in recent years is how to keep contamination from GMO crops out of any i may be growing. unfortunately there is no requirement to make crops that are GMO obviously (visually) distinguishable from those that...

you all are family and pack, so hard when one dies. i would think snake bite too or poison somehow for those kinds of effects. :( :hugs

some fresh snow on the ground and a bit more coming down...

they find gaps to hibernate in. they will show up here, getting gaps sealed helps reduce how many but we usually have a few around. the most annoying thing is that they will be attracted to moisture so they may climb on you heading for the mouth, eyes, nostrils and even ears if you sit still...

copper is toxic to many marine creatures. :(

the apple didn't fall far from the tree? ... :)

check out the different kinds of cells in the brain and what they do... :)
