What do you remember about school lunches? I remember hating the canned slices of carrots that seemed to show up on our trays 'way too often; and...
Y'all are talking about firewood and stocking up for the winter. We are having 100 degree days. Sure wish there was a wood you could burn to run...
I remember my daddy cutting a "plug" in a melon to see if it was ripe. I think he really just wanted a treat to give to me--I got to eat the plug!
Donna, I'll try to take pictures tomorrow and post them the next day. Mart, if you didn't use that great manure-in-a-bottle fertilizing system,...
Pruning tomatoes is simply taking off non-producing limbs, those which are past their prime, and letting the existing root system send out new...
Carolyn, what a coherent, fool-proof way of telling if a melon in the field is ripe or not! I'll pass this information along to some of our...
Grumpy is a good sign--it's the first indication of recovery! We'll still keep your sister in our thoughts and prayers, even if she is a bit testy...
It's so beautiful it doesn't look real. Why do folks go to Las Vegas when they could visit Moraine Lake?

We burned the field trimmings (two pick-up truck loads) when we first moved here, and I piled everything in the middle of the...
Firewood warms you twice--once when you cut, move, carry it, and again when you burn it. Sounds like you are going to be mighty warm, Captain!
Oh, gosh, thanks for the reminder! Our skies are supposed to be clear, and perhaps we can see the meteor shower and the planets. We love the show...
That's funny about the dealer not wanting you to make him lose a sale! I guess an unhappy customer is better than no customer at all? :roll:...
Best wishes for a very happy birthday!
Aha! I had it backwards--but I'm not all that familiar with deer headgear. I'm glad he wasn't injured, just doing what comes naturally.
Well yes, or a tender part of your body could get sunburned! (Some of us need really wide-brimmed hats). :roll:
Your photos are always great--so nicely framed and clear! I know that deer lose their velvet from their antlers in the spring--is he just late...
