FBG, I don't trust weathermen, I trust our cats and the cows in the field across from us. Both are reliable, available for consultation when...
That photo is so darned cute! Sympathies to the squirrel, and congratulations to you.
Papaw, ask at the feed store. One of their customers will have more bunching onions than they can handle, and would be happy to give you starts....
I cut a bouquet of Dark Lady and Esperanza before the rain. We are enjoying it, and hope y'all do, too.[ATTACH]
I like snakes, but can't say I love them. Our snakes are mostly non-venomous and afraid of humans. I like to see them around the yard since they...

Now that y'all have solved the grapevine fertilizer problem I had, I've another question for you. The vine has a lot of grapes forming, I mean A...
